Hi,
could somebody with checkin rights please apply the below patch?
A while back we set SSH_IOBUFSZ, the size of the IO buffers used by
ssh, to 65536 for Cygwin, which resulted in a noticable speed up of
the connection. However, due to constraints in Windows Sockets in terms
of socket inheritance, we had to reduce the default SO_RCVBUF/SO_SNDBUF
buffer size in Cygwin from 65536 to 65535. The below patch sets this size
for the ssh buffers as well. The match between application buffer and
Windows socket buffers results in the best throughput.
Thanks,
Corinna
