Sounds promising.

I would like to have people test the idea before I implement it. I
need your help with the options:
ssh <<what options here?>> server sleep 10000000 &
sleep 3 # To make sure the above is logged in and set up
seq 1000 | parallel -j0 ssh <<what options here?>> server 'echo {};sleep 2'
kill %1 # Kill the sleeping ssh
When we have the options, I will encourage all users to try it out and
report back any problems - I am particularly interested in non-linux
machines, old distributions, slow machines and slow connections, as
that is where I anticipate problems.
