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?
