Wouldn't 5000 files of note-taking easily fit into RAM? Why bother dealing with thousands of small files? Also, rsync does quite a good job with intransferring multi-MB (or even larger) files efficiently while copying only what's actually changed.

I feel more secure by dealing with many individual files. For example in case of a conflict during sync, I can visually diff between the two pages very easily. This happens once in a while. Also for example if more than 5% of files have changed, the sync is stopped and asks for manual confirmation to prevent catastrophies.
