# ssh-cipher-benchmark.sh - Assesses speed of SSH encryption between specific hosts.
# Usage:
# ssh-cipher-benchmark.sh <remotehost> [ciphers]
# Default ciphers: all we can find...
#
# Note: In some cases, the first cipher tested runs faster than the others, regardless of order.
# Cause of this is not known, but changing the order of testing shows it to be true.  Run the
# first one twice if you suspect this.  Perhaps it is due to buffering?

The fastest remote directory rsync over ssh archival I can muster (40MB/s over 1gb NICs)

This creates an archive that does the following:

rsync (Everyone seems to like -z, but it is much slower for me)

• a: archive mode - rescursive, preserves owner, preserves permissions, preserves modification times, preserves group, copies symlinks as symlinks, preserves device files.
• H: preserves hard-links
• A: preserves ACLs
