Is latency good once the connection is established? Speed tests in the kB/s seem promising, but for interactive use that seems like the determining factor.
Also, slightly meta: What is this web ... app(?)? Looks like a git frontend?
At 40kbps I don't think the latency can be great. Having done SSH over 64kbps when I overran my mobile data subscription, my experience is that modern SSH clients expect more than that to run smoothly.

Looking at the source, this seems like a custom-built git frontend, served by a bespoke web server called BEJY (by the same author) it seems.

What do these bandwidth numbers have to do with latency?
If the round trip time is dominated by the time taken to encrypt and decrypt packets locally, as seems here, then the speed at which it can complete that is absolutely important for measuring "latency".
I gave it a go (A1200+AmiTCP 4.3), doesn't seem to work unfortunately and I can't seem to find any issue tracker on the website.

The program seems to call gethostbyname() on the supplied host, so you may want to try providing a DNS name instead.
Also, call with -v8 to get more detailed logging.
Well, what's in envarc:.ssh/ssh_config ? :-)
I wonder why the name change? Threats from rights holders?
I wouldn't be surprised if this was the case, given the long history[0].

Seems to be a custom git frontend written by him: https://franke.ms/git/bebbo/tigler
