It still takes a good amount of time to zip, but no where near as much as just copying them over. When you're done, you only have one (large) file to transfer.
How exactly do you zip all of the files?

Whenever I have tried this, and then I try to open it up on the other computer, it says the world.dat file can not be located, and then, won't open.
