There is no "ssh 2.2.0p1". The current version of (F-Secure)ssh is 2.3.0.
The current version of portable OpenSSH is 2.2.0p1.
Here are a few slow things that I've seen:
The server is running F-Secure SSH 2.x in SSH1 compatibility and
it takes a long time to generate the temporary host key.
The client has an IP address that can't be mapped to a name and
DNS will timeout (TCP_Wrapper?)
The client discards Identd requests (TCP_Wrapper/Firewall?)
The network is slow (satellite? radio? Broken modem/nic etc.)
Heavy load on client and/or server
Do you have exact versions of client and server? The servers sshd_config
and hosts.allow/hosts.deny? What does ping have to say?
