OK... are there any good ideas how to mitigate the latency effect ([1]) ? [1]=Long on my wishlist is something like a SSH3 protocol which somehow can rival Kerberised rsh (yes, yes, I know, it's comparing apples with pears) in connection setup latency and better handles socket/pipe buffer boundaries (sort of |SOCK_SEQPACKET|-style) ...
