[pve-devel] High Performance SSH

[Andreas Steinel]

A little bit off-topic, but there is hope:

This week, I almost saturated a 1 Gbit network link between two brand new
Dell Servers with 3.2 GHz Xeon E5-2667v3 CPUs. I got 105 MB/sec using
standard SSH/SCP. So we finally have single-thread-performance that is fast
enough for encryption on gigabit. Parallel encryption in threads would
still be desirable.
