Dear CentOS lovers,
Could you consider to include a patch, http://www.psc.edu/networking/projects/hpn-ssh/ for openssh maybe as CentosPlus packages? It has great speed impact for long-distance ( high delay ) transfer.

This would be pretty cool. Would it be appropriate for CentOS Plus?
I know Fedora had a pretty good thread on the possibility of adding this, but I think it was sort of decided against. Felt it was more appropriate to push OpenSSH to add support for this type of thing.
So I doubt we'll see it in RHEL/CentOS anytime soon, but perhaps Plus would be the place for it..

I've not looked at this, but it would be interesting to see what the developer of the patch thinks about maintaining and owning bugs that come up due to its use in CentOS.

Also note that this:
https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1311
Will be in OpenSSH 4.7. It's not HPN but appears to have some similar goals and approaches.
Of course, unlikely that this would enter CentOS until 6.0. But perhaps the fact that's it's "official" might make it a little bit more palatable to backport.

Dear Ray and all,
Thanks for your reply!

Yes, you are right. It is better to merge it into mainstream. And also you informed us another similar development will be included in the next OpenSSH. That sounds nice. We will receive the benefit at CentOS6 or 7 in somewhat long future.

The Plus repository is actually good for all of us, I think.
Thanks! Yuji Tsuchimoto
