Basicly, I think you have two ways to go: diff the source of 1.2.26 and
1.2.27 (the socket/scp related changes should not be that numerous)
and/or use tcpdump.
If I were you, I'd try the first option first. If you find a
suspicous-looking change from 1.2.26 to 1.2.27, just undo it in the
1.2.27 tree and try if that remedies the problem.
On pc-platforms that I use ssh on, I've had no performance problems
(other than that piping Linux smbfs through ssh is damn slow... ;) ), and
I haven't tried 2.0.x either, but I hear these kind of scp-performance
problems are common with 2.0.x. So it could be beneficial to spot the
problem.
