*sigh* Maybe I should have used nanoseconds.  I would have thought
people here would realize that 10ms is impossible on speed-of-light
grounds alone.

Overall, I simply don't see a difference between ssh and http for git
or hg.  Even if there's a 2-5 second greater handshake delay for ssh
than for HTTP (I notice you didn't bother to measure the HTTP
connection setup delay), any communication with a remote server is
going to take 10 seconds or more; I don't notice the handshake
difference.
