Hi Mark,

what the chart doesn't show is if you've used the client in async mode or 
blocking. The openssh sftp client is doing async transfer. I think libssh2 is 
using async transfer by default too. Could you please tell us how you've 
tested the clients and in which mode (async/blocking).

As already mentioned, in libssh sftp_read is blocking cause it is a posix like 
interface. sftp_async_read is the non-blocking function.


Thanks,
