As a user of hpn-ssh for years, I have to wonder if there is any reason (aside from the sheer cussedness for which Theo is infamous) that the window improvements at least from hpn-ssh haven't been backported into mainline openssh? I suppose there might be portability concerns with the multithreaded ciphers, and there's certainly a good argument for not supporting NONE as a cipher type out of the box without a recompile, but there's not much excuse for the fixed size tiny buffers - I mean, it's 2008 already... -r
