May 20, 20179 yr Hi Guys, Would it be feasible to apply these patches in one of the upcoming Unraid releases? It really helps with RSYNC transfers or basically anything using SSH. A few references:https://www.psc.edu/hpn-sshhttps://sourceforge.net/projects/hpnssh/ Thank you, -Marco
May 23, 20188 yr I do a lot of rsync over ssh. Anything that makes it better would be appreciated Sent from my Nexus 6 that hates Tapatalk
May 24, 20188 yr I'm looking in to this. Seems like it's a few different patches and some of them are quite extensive. If we do include HPN patches in our OpenSSH package it'll be included in unRAID 6.6
May 25, 20188 yr Unfortunately the HPN patch won't compile because it's created for OpenSSL 1.0.x while Slackware has upgraded to OpenSSL 1.1.x and they custom patched OpenSSH to use the OpenSSL 1.1.x API. OpenSSH needs to add OpenSSL 1.1.x support natively and then HPN will update their patch to work with OpenSSL 1.1.x. Update: I emailed the developers to ask if it was possible for them to add OpenSSL 1.1.x support in their patch
June 13, 20188 yr I got in touch with the developer and he was able to make it work with OpenSSL 1.1.x... so I will add this in to unRAID 6.6. Please share some benchmarks if you're able to compare unRAID 6.5 to unRAID 6.6 in SSH network transfer speeds.
June 13, 20188 yr Author That is awesome!! :) I will definitely do some testing and report back!! Thank you again! Marco
June 13, 20188 yr Use rsync so much and hate its worst performance, hope implement ASAP. Just got an answer why so slow. Edited June 13, 20188 yr by Benson

Please share some benchmarks if you're able to compare unRAID 6.5 to unRAID 6.6 in SSH network transfer speeds.I can do some USA - China rsync tests. Today the transfer speed is highly variable ranging from 20 kb/sec during peak evening times to 10mb/sec when it wants to run and run...
October 31, 20187 yr If you think this patchset is making a difference please reply, or else we will revert back to stock openSSH without the patch, because maintaining custom patches is a pain in the neck.
November 5, 20187 yr Author I did a quick test from my iMac, after patching SSH with the HPN stuff: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ccosby/homebrew-ninja/master/hpn-ssh.rb And it definitely went way up. I see on average transfer rates around 90-120 MB/s. Let me do some more testing this week but it definitely looks great already!
