Try Ciphers=arcfour it's usually faster than blowfish or aes if you're CPU
bound.  Also, make sure you have compression disabled.

With my laptop (XP SP1, 1.3 GHz Pentium M, OpenSSH 3.9p1) on a 100Mb/s ethernet
I get 1.5 MB/s (aes128-cbc, 15% CPU) and 1.6 MB/s (arcfour, 10% CPU).  In my
case, it appears to be IO bound.

How fast can you push data across your network without SSH?
