IMHO, ftpd hasn't an option to disable sendfile. I've tried the nginx with
disabled sendfile (the nginx.conf contains "sendfile off;"):

$ dd if=/dev/random of=test bs=1m count=100
100+0 records in
100+0 records out
104857600 bytes transferred in 5.892504 secs (17795083 bytes/sec)
$ fetch -o /dev/null http://localhost/test
/dev/null                                     100% of  100 MB   41 MBps
$ fetch -o /dev/null http://localhost/test
/dev/null                                     100% of  100 MB   44 MBps
$ fetch -o /dev/null http://localhost/test
/dev/null                                     100% of  100 MB   44 MBps
