Line rate ssh. Like if I have a 10G pipe I should be able to push 10G through without spending significant effort tweaking it for this specific transfer. I know this is partially wishful thinking but I’d like it to be easier.

This might be QUIC or some other UDP layer, or it might be something else entirely.

ssh is my go to tool for shifting almost anything from one place to another, except where I’m limited by single tcp streams.

A+
