One interesting thing to note is that if the containers are on the same storage account (which is unfortunately not the case for me) then there is a way to copy the blobs without passing by the client - not sure which API does it, but running Fiddler while copying with Azure Storage Explorer shows the x-ms-copy-source header.

Ok, it's called "CopyFromBlob". One could check if the source account matches the destination and use that method, otherwise use the DownloadToStream/UploadToStream combo.
