I am using openvpn to connect to the company network and ssh for generic
work. I can get a speed at about 200kB/sec with my SL-C3200. I guess it
is a limitation of computation power, because it is doing triple
encryption: WPA in hardware level, openvpn in network level and ssh in
application level.

Response times are good except the initial prompt, which takes about
5 sec. I did not any research about it, but it seems, that kernel has
bad response time if there is any task eating 100% CPU.
