It will be slow, because it works with several subprocesses in Emacs,
which communicate via process-filter. Maybe Emacs 24.4 is faster, it
might be worth a try.

As alternative you could use the plink or pscp methods. You need to
install PuTTY, this is possible also for Linux. Then you create a
session and configure a socks server for that session in
PuTTY. Afterwards, you could use the session name as target host.
