Isn't that an improvement only for interactive mode ? My point was
that something like $ ssh "$LOGNAME@desthost" '/bin/true' # is
horrible slow compared to (Kerberised) rsh, and gets even worse on
high-latency links (problem is that the large number of roundtrips by
the ssh protocol makes the whole thing latency-sensitive to a high
degree).
