What libcurl and libssh2 versions on what platform?

low SFTP upload speeds are frequently reported as you should know after
researching this topic, and it is mostly due to libssh2 not being optimally
designed for this. (Both the API and the underlying code.) It certainly has
room for improvements. You might be able to circumvent the worst effects by
doing parallell uploads.

That's how you specify the target URL to upload to, yes.
