I'll consider it. But it definitelly won't be soon. It's huge task.

I just saw the FAQ entry discussion slow transfer speeds: https://winscp.net/eng/docs/faq_slow

I do indeed get the same slow upload speed with putty's psftp ... such a shame!

Hi,

I used to use WinSCP in the past very often (also donated IIRC). I then stopped using it due to different work environment but now I'm using it again -- I'm glad to see it is still actively developed.

My problem is simple: WinSCP seems capped at around 880-900 KB/s upload speed to all sftp servers i tried. Using the "sftp" put command from cygwin, from the same machine and OS, I get 8 MB/s, which is what I would expect from my connection.

This is a huge difference ... any ideas?

(using Win7 x64 SP1)

p.s. Download speed is correct though: 7-8 MB/s which is expected and the same as the "sftp" get command.
