Here's a small teaser of USBNet's next build...
Yup, that's OpenSSH instead of dropbear! \o/
Why? Because it doesn't take eleventy-billion seconds to login, like dropbear and its infamous libtom{math,crypt} regression! (And the binary is only like ~100KB bigger, and the memory footprint is negligible (a bit over ~4MB vs. ~2MB). The only downside is on the K4/K5, where the binary takes a huge size hit because I link OpenSSL statically to avoid the 0.9.8 -> 1.0.0 russian roulette of the K5 FW versions
).
And if you really like dropbear, it's still the default anyway, you'll have to ask for OpenSSH in the config
.
Probably gonna be released tomorrow, I'm bushed right now, and the final binaries are still building... GCC's LTO takes a ginormous amount of time (basically, twice as much as a classic build).
