I've tried with a mtu set at 1300 and the problem still occurs. I can  
transfer any big file, but as soon as many files  are transferred at  
once, the connection dies. So I guess the problem remains: when  
transferring a directory, the thread setting does not seem to be use  
(several files are being sent at the same time).
