Double encryption slows it down because of CPU overhead, bandwidth use,
or both?

You're right, there doesn't seem to be a feasible way of tunneling the
transient data port. Ugh.

Hrmm... VPN using tunnelled PPP, (Free|Open)S/WAN, OpenVPN[1] or
tinc[2]? Or perhaps you can use Samba, instead? There's a "Setting up
Samba over SSH Tunnel" mini-HOWTO[3] if you can afford to install Samba
on hostA and hostB, and then have users access the files as if they were
local to hostB.
