sFTP overhead - WeOnlyDo Discussion board

sFTP overhead (General questions)

by Robert, Thursday, December 07, 2006, 16:29 (6561 days ago)

Hi,
Are there any statistics available as to the amount of overhead I can expect when transferring a file over sFTP? For example, if I want to transfer a 100K file, how much data is actually being transmitted on the line?
After implementing SSL into our applications using OpenSSL, we estimated an approximate 11 increase in the size of data that's actually transmitted (apart from the transfer of certificates, key negotiation and session establishment). Is it reasonable to assume using sFTP would be similar?
And finally, would there be a difference whether we use the ActiveX or VC components?
Thanks very much,
-- Robert
