I use cygwin ssh to connect to a Solaris 8 server and to a Debian
GNU/Linux Sarge workstation.

I also connect to an SSH, Inc Windows SSH server and to a couple
cygwin ssh servers.

I do not experience a noticeable slow-down for ssh terminal connections.

The Solaris system bogs down when running X apps to the degree that I
don't bother running X apps from it any more.  I think this is more of
a resource limitation on the Solaris system than on my cygwin system.

The Debian system is slower than I would like, but probably normal and
not as bad as the symptoms you describe.

My anti-virus software does not seem to contribute to any slowness.  I
am running McAfee VirusScan Enterprise 8.0i, patch 11.
