scp speed (push v/s pull)

I've noticed that scp file transfer speeds are significantly different
depending on whether you're pushing a file to a remote machine or
pulling a file from a remote machine.

When I push a file to another machine, I get 800 kB/s speed. When I
pull the same file from another machine, I get 8500 kB/s. Why is the
speed so different? Does it depend on some network setting or is it
something inherent in the protocol?

Thanks,
Nash.
