What is "surprisingly large"? I don't think a few thousand entries, although needing their time to be checked, would noticeably increase the time to login. And, once you're in, the entries are not needed nor checked any more.

Maybe a newbie mistake but I now just added "-o CheckHostIP=no" and "-o BatchMode=yes" and it appears to be running about 30% faster than previous days.

This is a great increase but if anyone can suggest anything else along the same vein that could be causing connection delays I would appreciate it.

known_hosts file was 350 MB. I under-exaggerated the numbers to simplify the question.
