Are you using CentOS?
Nope - Debian.
If it's just the login take a look at the UseDNS setting in sshd_config. If it's SSH itself then your server load probably has something to do with it.
My SSH connections lag a lot when the ethernet cable falls out of my laptop forcing it to use wifi.
Agree
Otherwise.. stop pr0n downloading
Sometimes iptables is behind that, try to login while disabling it.
SSH over USB is epically fast.
LOL. Sometimes, it's just the providers fault tho.
Drop OpenSSH for Dropbear, it seems to be a lot quicker to me.
I have the DNS problem, and seems that dropbear doesn't have a setting to fix this, unfortunately
If you're running Xeoncross' version of lowendscript, increase the number of ssh connections from 3 to 5. I had to do that as, for whatever reason, i could only connect with sftp or ssh but not both until I did that.
For me, lagging on ssh connections is related to the wireless connection. At the library, where there's a decent connection, it goes right through. At Panera, it's slow.
Also connect to the Ip address and not the domain. That seems to work for me as well.
maybe if you connect with putty try unchecking the disable nagle algorithm and enabling compression ? Thats helped me before. Though some providers shells do just seem slower in general - not sure why (slow being when i press a key it doesnt update on screen)
I would think compression would make it worse since that makes it an extra step or layer it has to go through. I know with the file cashing we do on our CMSes, if we can do it, we compress the saved or cached pages but anything that's live is left uncompressed.
