Yes, this is a known performance problem with libssh2.

A known funtional work-around is to simply use multiple connections to upload
multiple files simultanouesly with libcurl, as then the libcurl+libssh2 combo
not only becomes comparable speed-wise but in fact it will actually outperform
several competing alternatives. Of course that won't help if you're only
down/uploading a single large file.

The effort to improve SCP and SFTP transfer speeds must be put into the
libssh2 code base.
