     EC2: Disable RSA host key generation for sshd
These are largely obsolete, and generating them is responsible for
     over 10% of the total boot time of EC2 instances.


Wouldn't it be a good idea to disable this in general in 15-CURRENT? It 
wouldn't affect existing installations.

Regards,
Ronald.
