sftp slow uploads

Question

I am having a issue with slow uploads & SFTP.

I have tried disabling the Zlib http://forum.rebex.net/questions/61/file-upload-with-rebex-sftp-isnt-working-properly

I have also tried

client.Options |= SftpOptions.UseLargeBuffers;

I can't seem to break 1mbps, wheras filezilla and other clients upload around 6-7mbps with my internet connection.

I am using Windows 7 Pro 64bit both .NET 4 & 2.0 versions of the DLL. Also tried on three different machines.

Strange result is using a Vmware virtual machine which is Win7 64 bit I get 4mbps upload with Rebex 4.0 framework sftp dll. This virtual machine is on the same host running Win7 which is one of the ones that is slow uploading.

In short why would a virtual machine upload so much quicker then the host machines..

I am using DU meter to determine the bandwidth during the transfers, and the server is a CORE FTP. The internet connections are on the server side 100mpbs, and FIOS 25/25 client.

Answer 1

Thanks for your reply. FYI dll ver: v4.0.30319

1)Filezilla inside the Virtual machine is uploading between 5-6mbps

2)Filezilla on the host machine(s) same results 5-6mbps

3)Rebex on the host less then 1mbps Win7 64

4)Rebex on the virtual machine ~4mbps. (An the virtual machine is on the same host getting the slow speeds, network adapter is bridged) Win7 64

5)Tested on my laptop windows 7 64bit <1mbps

6)Tested on another host machine Windows 7 64bit <1mbps

I have a test account ready to go if you want to test I suppose you can send me a private message to exchange those details? I have also tried changing the receive window size on the server, and the UseLargeBuffers does not seem to make any change in speed either way.

code I am using for the test:

Sftp client = new Sftp();
client.Options |= SftpOptions.UseLargeBuffers;
client.Connect("host",4000);
client.Login("u", "p");</p>

client.PutFile(@"c:\temp\test.bin", "test.bin");
