I am using Ansible to copy a file from Debian to XP running on the same 
machine on Virtualbox. Copying the file (437KB) using ssh as transport is 
taking 5 secs. I profiled the same copy operation using scp and that takes 
~820ms.

I am using ssh 5.5 on Debian squeeze and hence don't have ControlPersist 
support. I have set in ansible.cfg: [defaults] ... transport = ssh

[ssh_connection] ssh_args = -o GSSAPIAuthentication=no -o 
GSSAPIKeyExchange=no -o AddressFamily=inet -o Ciphers=arcfour,blowfish-cbc 
scp_if_ssh = True

I am using Ansible 1.6.6.

How can I better the speed, close to that of scp? Am I missing some 
configuration?
