Topic: Slow speed when transferring via SFTP

Hello,

I am using MySecureShell 1.15 and I noticed something. When transferring a zip file I could only get a download speed of 5kB per second using /bin/MySecureShell and sftp.  When I changed to ./bin/bash and used sftp I could download at 11MB/s!

This is a serious problem! What can I do to increase transfer rate using MySecureShell!

Hi Mojoman !

It seams you've keeped the default configuration. Check those values :
* GlobalDownload
* Download
in your sftp_config file. Change them to 0 to get full available speed.

Keep us informed  wink
