I currently use j2ssh in a couple of applications and it rocks!
I've been tasked to provide a "rudimentary" speed test - to provide a rough bandwidth speed test via one of my pages. The test is to measure the speed between the web server on which my application is running and another SSH-accessible machine. Any suggestion on how best to do so? I thought of transferring a file of known size via sftp and timing bit I then have the overhead of the SSH stuff. They know it will be only a rough estimation of throughput but will afford the customer the ability to make relative comparisons over time.
Any and all suggestions appreciated.
