Writing to the flash memory is slow? I've seen speeds of 10MB/s easy when copying files over USB onto the internal flash, thats ~80Mb/s and should easily be able to cope with a wifi connection...

But the writes tend to block all I/O and use 100% CPU waiting, which could(?) interfere with wifi driver operation. It was a theory.
A quick iperf test from my wireless laptop as server to my n900 as client shows around 6.86Mbps.
I'm using a DD-WRT'd WRT54g. Powersaving is enabled on my n900.
Well, apparently it's not the SSH encryption making my SCP transfers so slow.
EDIT:
Powersaving on/off/intermediate has no effect at all for me. It stayed within the ballpark of 6.86Mbps with each setting. I even disconnected from wireless then reconnected. Short of a reboot, I don't actually know if the settings took effect or not.
No, I mean the WEP/WPA encryption. For example on my WRT610N with a Wifi-N card that "syncs" at 300Mbps, I can get transfers at about 18 MBytes/s, and if I enable WPA, it falls at about 8 MBytes/s.
