1. the main bug report (filezilla vs far manager vs curl) contains test of cross-countries
test results (ping >8ms). recent tests (with custom builds of 7.28.1) were made inside single subnet (ping < 1ms) so they have better speed values.

2. CURL_MAX_WRITE_SIZE = 16kb and SO_SNDBUF=8mb gives very good ftp upload speed (equal to version with big global buffer), but sftp upload speed still have 6Mb/s limit.
So the best way to increase both ftp and sftp upload speed is to increase CURL_MAX_WRITE_SIZE;
I understand that sftp limit may have different nature - but now it's also depends on CURL_MAX_WRITE_SIZE value.
