[paramiko] SFTP performance for large files

All,

I have been doing some benchmarks on Linux for transferring files over SSH.
It appears that paramiko works relatively well for files less than 1 MB, but
for larger files the transfer time as compared to scp for 100 MB and 1 GB
becomes 20 times longer.  Does anyone have any ideas as to why that is?

Thanks,

Bill
