You are entitled to that opinion, I just wanted to correct you that this is not a change in OpenSSH behaviour from your point of view, just different bits. For you it's business as usual. I don't anticipate Internet users in general to be capable of configuring QoS and I think they deserve reasonable defaults, and those who understand what they want, can change those defaults. The WLAN AP you shop from typical provider has QoS built-in, and it works reasonably, with reasonable definition. I wish we'd take it further, and give reasonable last mile QoS to consumer, the 'small packets first in congestion' would on average increase user experience significantly. -- ++ytti
