Works very nicely on my end, both in the small test application I gave
the source for as well as the proper application where I use it. Delay
is nowhere to be seen, as it now spends it time transferring files instead.

As mentioned earlier I currently only use libcurl for SFTP, so that's
the only protocol I can say anything about, but I guess that a drive
through the test suite already have ensured you that it did not break
things elsewhere...

Thank you very much for the help with the issue!
