I have problems similar to this when the machine I was connecting to did
not have proper DNS setup, and (I believe) was unable to get a fix on
who I was...

Just a thought.

Define this a bit more. IE: from a remote PC, a remote site, etc. If its

the latter, then the lagg would be the latency between point A and point

B. Meaning, if the remote box is miles away, the route to it may be 
diverted in some magical way as only the internet can do.

If however, the remote box is right next to you - well, who knows.
I would also guess it would make a diff what you are running on the box 
you are ssh'in into, IE: Are you running X on it, is it hosting web 
pages, it is FTP, mail etc.

There are lots of factors but you need to be specific as to the 
environment. Know what I mean?
