Whilst scp'ing a file to a server, the ping responses of the server drops to be 6 times slow at ~640ms. Is this... normal? I'm using nginx, is this an indicator that it needs fine tuning?

Your pings are competing for bandwidth with your file transfer. So of course they will take longer. This most likely indicates that you've maxed out your home network's bandwidth.
