If you're gonna put a compression tool in the pipeline then I recommend
you ensure ssh's own on-the-wire compression is turned off 'cos otherwise
you're potentially wasting CPU cycles.
  ssh -q -o 'Compression no' remote-host

Yes; this may be the default value but it's always a good thing to
ensure sane values are used in cases like this :-)
