Well, I'd be interested to see it. But 1) I really doubt there's all that
much that can be done to speed up DSA on a Sparc 2, and 2) I, personally,
have no problem using SSH1 on my sparcs, partly because I'm not all that
worried about SSH1 in the first place, but mostly because they're on a
firewalled, private-IP LAN. <g> Others, of course, may feel differently.
