once you are done with the download of the initial cloned git repository (which is 200MB+), all the bisection steps will be local and you'll be only limited by kernel rebuild speed and by bootup and testing speed, not by network bandwidth.
( once you have the cloned repository i'd suggest for you to keep it - that way you can track susequent kernels via "git-pull" and it uses a very network-efficient delta protocol. )
