Sometime back, I was involved in testing hardware 3DES because of the miserable throughput of a software implementation. The increase was substantial but was abandoned in favor of software AES-128. It is my understanding that the "crypto overhead" of AES is less than 3DES by an order of magnitude; successfully implemented AES-128 in 10mbit network with minimal performance degradation. AES is quickly becoming the defacto standard for may SSH implementations.
