Any suggestions on how to do this? Right now my plan is to just throwing
as many ssh clients as I can find at it and compare. I just completed
openssh and it checks out the code in 63s, which is nearly twice as fast
as plink, but still 5 times slower than the svnserve daemon. I have some
obscure/old ssh clients I want to try but, need pass a few of them custom
arguments since they don't read config files like openssh or plink can.

As for my network connection, its a 100 megabit link going through a
10/100 switch. Your basic home LAN with only 2 computers on it. The
switch does have a 10 megabit uplink to a DSL connection, but I've ruled
it out by unplugging it for a variety of tests. Ping times between the
machines are < 1ms.
