If you are not already, make sure you are compiling OpenSSH and especially
OpenSSL with SPARC v8 instructions (for gcc, that's -mv8). At least some
versions of gcc default to v7 which has no hardware multiply which slows
down some crypto, Diffie-Hellman in particular. Not sure about other
compilers.

this one is a concern, and while I have some SPARC hardware I can't
currently access it to repro. Does it have pselect()? If so, try removing
HAVE_PSELECT from config.h and recompiling (this will use the compat code
instead, which should be equivalent to what was there previously. If it
doesn't have pselect then the problem likely relates to the compat code
itself.
Thanks.

Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
