That's great, will definitely try it out! ;-) On a related SSH performance note, in a past project I found that Cryptlib's SSH performance had significantly better IO rates than the OpenSSH client. I never tracked down why that was the case, but as I recall it was something like 30-50% faster. https://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~pgut001/cryptlib/
