Hi, I don't see anything strange in the logs provided. Do you see anything strange in your dmesg, /var/log/daemon.log, etc?
Is the DNS on the server's side working properly? Sometimes when the reverse DNS is not properly configure some TCP based services get some delay on first connection: ssh, mysql, etc Can a network issue be discarded. Please check with mtr: mtr remote server Not a solution but a very tiny improvement , launch the tunnel with the -C (compression) parameter.
