[Ssh-sftp-perl-users] Slow Slow Slow Net::SFTP

[Eric L. <net...@er...>]

Anyone know of any reason that Net::SFTP would be sooo slow transferring
files? I have been playing with a script that transfers file across a local
gigabit switch and a ~150 meg file is taking more than 5 minutes, where
using standard linux shell sftp it takes less than 30 seconds. 

All in all for all of the transfers the script needs to do the run time is
almost 30 minutes.
