I haven't figured out yet how to build libssh2, and I don't need it at the moment. Out of curiosity, I run some tests of SFTP using curl binaries by Viktor Szakats [1] and some ancient CopSSH server. Uploads to localhost were capped at ~300 KB/s. WinSCP was able to upload to the same server at a rate of 4MB/s, maxing out one entire CPU in the process (server used about 15% of another one), so Curl seems a little unimpressive here. On linux Curl uploaded to localhost (OpenSSH + sftp) at a rate of 15 MB/s, using 60% of a single CPU (server used ~30% of another one). Tried both libssh and libssh2, didn't notice a difference. This result is much better, but there may still be some room for improvement.
