See the following man pages

http://man.openbsd.org/sftp

http://man.openbsd.org/ssh_config.5

From those man pages the rekey limit option is described as:

RekeyLimit

Specifies the maximum amount of data that may be transmitted before the session key is renegotiated, optionally followed a maximum amount of time that may pass before the session key is renegotiated. The first argument is specified in bytes and may have a suffix of ‘K’, ‘M’, or ‘G’ to indicate Kilobytes, Megabytes, or Gigabytes, respectively. The default is between ‘1G’ and ‘4G’, depending on the cipher. The optional second value is specified in seconds and may use any of the units documented in the TIME FORMATS section of sshd_config(5). The default value for RekeyLimit is “default none”, which means that rekeying is performed after the cipher's default amount of data has been sent or received and no time based rekeying is done.
