Bug Description
I originally encountered the problem when connecting with Nemo via SSH ; file transfer was very slow (~ 5kb/s), while with Filezilla, on the same distant machine, I could transfer at 2-3Mb/s.
Using gvfs-copy sftp://.... also resulted in very slow transfer.
Note that I have been observing this behaviour for a long time, but not systematically: the file transfer with nemo has already been fast, seldomly.

I can confirm that nemo sftp is painfully slow. I hadn't paid attention to it until recently, but it's transferring at around 30 kb/s. The same transfer using filezilla fstp is at least 10 times faster.
