Edit your sshd config and add useDNS: no to it, don't forget to restart the deamon.

Either way, I get your point, I remember programming in Delphi, compiling, chatting on IRC and browsing the net with a 56K Winmodem (all the modulation was software driven) with a Pentium 2 all at the same time, and now I can't even have and IDE and slack open at the same time.

I'm old enough to remember 14k, 28k and 56k modems - and while yh internet held great wonder, waiting for pages to load and files to download was really frustrating.

Oh, and having to hangup so my parents could make a phonecall wasn't fun either!

This at least is something that has got orders of magnitudes better, and is very much noticeable. At times I still shake my head in wonder at being able to download a GB in less than 2 mins on a residential FttC connection.

IDE? Slack? "There's your problem right there."
