I wouldn't expect ssh to be slower than ssl.  ssl is pretty slow/cpu
intensive too, you know :)

`ssh -c blowfish' can greatly speed up ssh, especially on slow
machines.

sftp is actually pretty slick.  I've personally found scp to be just
fine, but if you want something that works like ftp, sftp works just
fine.  And since most *nix hosts have ssh installed already (and since
more and more have OpenSSH and therefore ssh2), it'll already work on
most hosts out there.

Of course, if you don't control the server, and especially if it's a
Windows box that you don't control, you're stuck with what it
supports.  In that case, good luck on your search -- I can't help you.
