[Solved] Can this code have bottleneck or be resource-intensive?

Question

The problem was the sftp client.

The purpose of the console application was to loop through a list<> and download the files. I tried with winscp and, even though, it did the job, it was very slow. I also tested sharpSSH and it was even slower than winscp.

I finally ended up using ssh.net which, at least in my particular case, was much faster than both winscp and sharpssh. I think the problem with winscp is that there was no evident way of disconnecting after I was done. With ssh.net I could connect/disconnect after every file download was made, something I couldn’t do with winscp.
