I've recently moved from Fedora to Kubuntu, all was fine (almost) until I've did last update today. I assume this change caused slowness. Basically when I'm working in console on my localhost all is fine, but when I'm connecting by ssh to another server here comes my problem, typing became very slow same with vim editing files, I can type and see after a few seconds that letters start to appear on screen (or disappear if deleting). I'm unable work properly.

Welcome to Ask Ubuntu! Are you sure this is not your network/internet connection causing this? The package updates you mention don't change anything about how SSH works. And what makes you think the issue is not caused on the remote machine you're connected to? To confirm: boot up a live CD/image and see if you still have this issue. – gertvdijk Feb 6 at 13:38
Thanks for quick answer I'll try to boot in Live system. I've tested slowness with two different servers, both working similarly. I've rebooted OS, didn't helped either. – Radamanf Feb 6 at 13:51
The same slowness on live usb, but it makes no sense, I can normally see websites, and youtube is working. My speed is: down - 0.34Mbps; up -0.05Mbps; ping 154ms according to speedtest net – Radamanf Feb 6 at 14:09
You may have other standards than I have, but 0.05Mbps seems very slow to me. Anyway, we've just found out that it's not any update causing this. This makes the suspicion on the internet connection (anywhere on the path between your PC and the remote ones) very strong. Can you try to SSH over the local network and see if the issue then still occurs? – gertvdijk Feb 6 at 14:14

Easy, yes this is definitely internet connection speed, I've tested local server as you've suggested and it works fast, than you for your help. (I need to close this ticket) – Radamanf Feb 6 at 14:48
