Hey there, I'm experiencing performance issues with sshd (from openssh) when using scp/sftp. I have two computers connected via gigabit ethernet through a switch and only get around 30 kB/s!
I tried openbsd-server from both stable (4.3p2-9) and unstable (4.6p1-5 compiled for etch) and it happens with both. As clients I used another Debian system with lenny on it and even Putty on Windows, so the problem seems to be with sshd. Both computers had hardly anything else running with CPU usage of under 5% and almost no load on the hard drives. The network link seems to be ok too as the computer with sshd running acts as a router and I get over 500 kB/s top for my internet connection. I previously ran IPCop with sshd on the exact same machine and got very good results copying files with scp (at least 30 times what I get now), so the problem seems to Debian specific (or at least openssh specific). Does anybody have any idea what I could do? I don't know what to do because I need it for backups and it's just not feasible with this speed. Should I file a bug? I am grateful for any kind of help!
