Newer versions of @option{ssh} (for example OpenSSH 4) offer an option
@option{ControlMaster}.  This allows @option{scp} to reuse an existing
@option{ssh} channel, which increases performance.

implementation does support this option.  Try from the command line

@example
ssh localhost -o ControlMaster=yes
@end example
