Since I have moved to Windows XP I am experiencing extremely slow
transfers using ssh related tools (rsync -essh, scp)

I have installed last version, searched for problems like this into the
mailing lists, and i have found:

cygwin deadlocks due to broken select() when writing to pipes
    http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2003-10/msg01810.html

And 

Re: scp slow against cygwin sshd
    http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2003-09/msg00311.html

Then I have run strace -m 0x00040 and it seems the problem sounds
similar to first reference:
