After conversion, I send the converted ebooks in one step and then delete the AZW3 ebooks.
OK, so what you're now saying is that if you manually convert and then upload the converted books, they upload as a single job -- which is what I originally said -- and not that uploading with autoconversion does the conversions followed by a single upload, which is what you said originally. In other words, you are seeing exactly what I am seeing, despite what you said originally.

None of which answers my original question: Would it be possible for Calibre to somehow batch all the uploads after autoconverting so that the many lengthy metadata uploads can be combined into one?

I can certainly do the conversion and then do the upload as a separate step, which is what I now do, but sometimes I forget and just hit "Send"... and then it takes forever. So if there were a solution, I would be very happy.
