Both are RedHat Boxes.  Sometimes different versions, but I have gone same
version to same version over the same link with the same results.

Are both systems running Linux?  I have seen lots of issues between
various implementations of scp (which is basically what sftp uses).
Sometimes performance is great and sometimes it really sucks, depending
on who the client and server are.  I haven't seen the issue between two
Linux systems though.
