That is some pretty awful latency. I'm cuhrious whether the master/agents are
on different Virtual Networks? Have you also reached out to Azure support about
this?

Since this is primarily affecting the JNLP agents, I would be skeptical of what
software-defined-networking stuff inside Azure might be doing to that traffic
that it is not doing to SSH traffic.

I would be surprised if the JNLP support in Jenkins were the culprit
