The pigeon is the flash drive and has a much higher transfer rate than a commercial flash drive.

Is the time of loading and downloading the files from the flash drives of the pigeon included?

Yes it was. Though he did use faster SSD drives rather then cheaper and slower flash drives. Which is something reasonable to do IMO. He also tested various network transfer methods to use the fastest one and transferred unique data to each drive rather then just uploading the same file over and over giving both sides a fair but also their best shot at working.
