I messed with the SFTP implementatoin a while back. I noticed it was pretty tough and, if I'm not mistaken, a bit out-dated. We ended up moving to Amazon S3 so it wasn't a big deal.
Anyways, maybe you could try using another file system? SSH isn't really an ideal solution for this sort of a problem -- even though it works as a great starting point. I'm not sure if that helps much but good luck to you!
