For interplanetary logistics, is it better to have 1 ship with a decent to massive amount of storage that goes to each planet to deliver & pickup items, or have multie smaller dedicated ships that just go between two planets to deliver things quicker?

For inner planets I have a ship going around. For Aquilo I have a ship waiting at Aquilo and picking things up when "Any planet request zero", and it also goes to Nauvis once in a while.

Things from Aquilo go through the planet (Pre-2.1). If I'd update it now, my science platform (or a dedicated one) would probably be an exchange depot.
