I just wanted to make this clear:
I'm fully agreeing that better SFTP performance is wanted, but since SCP is a
much simpler protocol and is suspected to also suffer from performance
problems it seems suitable to me to start with the more basic stuff and get
that up to speed first, before diving into SFTP. Without a well-performing
SCP, we won't have a well-performing SFTP.
