SSH Connection Sharing
Use ssh ControlMaster to share one TCP connection among multiple ssh instances and speed things up when you run many commands over ssh.
How much time does it really buy you? A quick test of
date; for i in `seq 1 40` ; do ssh xenu.example.org true; done; date
takes 4s with a "Master" process running; 24s without.
