You need to take into account all the layers between you and the remote OS. I can report experiencing all kinds of lags to machines not very far away, and also almost instantaneous response to machines half a planet away. It just depends on how performant the various connections are. But, it's not ssh that introduces the lags. It's other factors like the quality of internet connections among the machines involved, or how your host OS handles a resident shell application in the case of Cygwin. Janina
