My LEAF is WRAP box, the other machine is Pentium 3 running Fedora Core 3. I know SCP/SSH encrypts data but this is done via local network and should not be such slow.

What kind of system are you using for the LEAF box?

Transferring data via ssh (or scp) encrypts everything, which can cause a
substantial performance penalty for slower systems.
