iphone - Amazon s3 fast fileset download?

I have an iphone app that sometimes has to download a set of files from a bucket on a Amazon AWS S3 account.

A typical such download will involve maybe 100 files. Most of these files are very small though and all combined, we are still under 3MB.

At the moment, I use the listObjectsInBucket function and then loop on all files and use the API/SDK function getObject to get them one by one.

The problem is that it takes a very long time to do it that way so I would like to have some advice regarding a faster strategy that would work in my scenario (many small files that have to stay available individually so that they can be modified by a CMS).

Thanks in advance.
