I would not remove low-bandwidth from the list. Compressing the connection requires further CPU consumption, and if the requirement is both low bandwidth and low CPU consumption, then you obviously can't offload more on the CPU, right?Remove low-bandwidth from the list of requirements, since ssh can compress traffic on the fly and reduce bandwidth consumption significantly.
Note: I also said that we're talking about a situation where sniffing isn't an issue. These are few and far between, but they do exist. In this case, any added CPU/bandwidth/whatever loss is simply waste.
