The sum of the fees of many small transactions will be bigger than the fees of one big transaction...

True, but he won't hit the unexplained 0.1BTC fee. And I the feeling it's better to send 10 low-fee transactions of 2 kb each, than 1 low-fee transaction that takes 20 kb.

At this moment, the optimal fee for a 95% chance of getting into the next 3 blocks is 162 sat/byte

In protonewb's case, I'd send it with 11 sat/byte (he's in no rush). There's no need to be in the next 3 blocks. btc.com shows how the required fee drops hard after a block has been found, and then slowly goes up again. If 2 blocks are found close together, the second block gets filled with low-fee transactions. That's the sweetspot I aim for when I pay a low fee.

So, in the end, you'd pay an extra 64.000 satoshi's, and you'd end up with 10 unspent outputs instead of one if you decide to split up the one big transaction into 10 smaller one's.

For that reason, I take care of small change during my normal transactions. I don't let it collect until I have hundreds of them.
Then, when I really need to make a time-sensitive transfer, I pay a high fee for 1 input, instead of 10-100 inputs.

I'm using command line so coin control is a bit harder.

Any chance you can just download the wallet and do it from your local GUI?
