Hi, 7 seconds seems slow. Where said that it's a common problem? I get around 1 second to SSH to a raspberry pi (700mhz "ARMv6"). Was it built with the same compiler and compile options? Leaving optimisation off could make that difference.
I can't see how it wouldn't ask for a password unless there's -g or -s on the commandline. Does "ssh -v" show just "Authentications that can continue: publickey", not "publickey,password" ?
