It's not easy to make 64-bit version of WinSCP. We definitely aim for that, but it will take time.

Hey Martin.

I have tried 5.7. Unfortunately it gives the same speed as 5.6.5 RC.

Perhaps you could include a x64 version so we could confirm those assumptions?

Ah, please, ignore the 11.5 MB/s download "downgrade", it happened because the connection to my server somehow got dumbed down to 100Mbs instead of the usual 1000Mbs.

After renegotiation to 1000Mbs, the download is back to around 19 MBs (Kind of also get the feeling the download is capped).

Regardless, the upload should have been more than 5MBs on either connection mode, so the problem with upload remains the same.

Thanks for the test.
Can you please repeat the test with 5.6.4 RC to verify there are no external causes for the decrease?

Sorry for delay. I have implemented yet another improvement:
Issue 1273 – Increase size of connection receiving buffer
I have sent you an email with a development version of WinSCP to address you have used to register on this forum.

Can you try 5.6.4 RC and execute it from a command-line like this?

winscp.exe sftp://user@host/ /rawsettings TcpNoDelay=1 /log=session.log

Please attach the log here.
