SUMMARY

ksshaskpass delays for around 200ms before prompting the user, on a fairly fast system.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. /usr/libexec/ssh/ksshaskpass
2. Try to hit enter again before the window appears. You win!
3. /usr/libexec/ssh/gnome-ssh-askpass
4. Try to hit enter again before the prompt appears. It's too fast.


OBSERVED RESULT
ksshaskpass is a bit slow

EXPECTED RESULT
ksshaskpass is fast
