curl was consistently a little bit faster than bash/lftp, but that may be
related to the sftp encryption (curl ran plain ftp, port 21). curl vanilla

vanilla, sometimes the other way around.
@Daniel Jelinski: could you compile a version with sftp support?
curl's SFTP performance is however known to not be optimal - so I consider
that to be a poor protocol choice to check for TCP/winsock performance.
I think keeping it as plain TCP as possible (HTTP or FTP basically) helps
keeping the comparisons as relevant as possible. But I used HTTPS from my
windows box and that also showed a huge difference with the patched version.
