[WSL rsync / ssh traffic slow down unless Kaspersky is paused]

Hi,

Windows 10 with WSL (Ubuntu for Windows) installed, I often use rsync via ssh to upload files to the internet. I noticed the upload speed is slowed down a lot, unless I pause Kaspersky.

I have tried adding the rsync.exe/ssh.exe and even all the exe under WSL as trusted applications and exclusions, but the upload speed is still slow. If I pause Kaspersky manually, then the speed is back to normal.

Is there something I can do about this?

Thanks!
