I'm 100% sure it's due to packet delays. Mark, as a suggestion, could you provide us a little more information, like the RTT between the two hosts (even on the LAN), and the sample of code you used for the benchmark (so it's reproducible). We all know that performance of a lib may be very well depending on the way it's being used. I'm also interested in having libssh's results on your site as well (both 0.4.6 and git master).

"cat file > /dev/null" before running the test may be enough. On remote side, when possible write to /dev/null or to a SSD disk.
