I wonder where the perceived bottleneck is. I mean, you have two boxes
connected by ethernet (whatever speed), and you're running a sftp bulk
file transfer. What is the limiting factor? Are the boxes less than
20% idle? Is the nework saturated or is there room for more throughput?

If someone can split SSH into multiple threads, it should be just as
possible to split it into multiple processes. However, I expect that
most high-speed SSH traffic is SCP-/SFTP-based and therefore largely
I/O bound, so it hasn't been high on anyone's requirements list.
Based
strongly about this, don't have the time to
invest in any coding.
Lastly, if any of the people opposed to threads would take a look at the
code I think that would be very helpful. There is nothing quite as
useful as getting a serious critique from someone who really disagrees
with you.
