lsh seems slower than openssh, in particular for bulk file transfers.
Help with profiling and tuning would be appreciated. I'm not sure if
it uses more cpu, or generates more network traffic, or both.

Hmm, at what time scale? lsh intentionally fiddles with the VMIN and
VTIME attributes of the terminal in order to get more than one
character at a time when you're typing fast, but at least I don't
notice that when typing.

That sounds hard. For a start, it's mostly pointless to run root
processes under chroot (if you do it for security reasons), as it's
easy for root to break out under most unix-like OS:es. And to be able
to log in users, lshd needs to be able to read /etc/passwd (and
/etc/shadow, if you use shadow passwords), chdir to users' home
directories, etc.
