Paul, a while back Jon Elson commented about lags between user input on 
the X11 server and resulting action in the X11 client, e.g., the LCNC 
host. I don't believe this is an artifact simply of your Windows-based 
X11-server lashup although this configuration could be a contributing 
factor. At the moment, looking at the latency issue remains stuck in my 
FINO (first in,never out) stack.

One caveat for folks tunneling X11 through ssh from low horsepower LCNC 
hosts. It entails encryption of the X11 traffic and my tests showed the 
compute burden is significant on my Beaglebone Black no matter the 
specific encryption algorithm 
(https://sites.google.com/site/manisbutareed/beaglebone-black-linuxcnc 
Sorry I haven't added the promised "details later" yet but it's taking 
me time to recover from a personal calamity). This was the work Dave 
Engvall alluded to.

For these systems I suggest a traditional redirection of the X11 traffic 
using the well-known DISPLAY environment variable (and typically a few 
adjustments on the X11-server host as well). It's terribly insecure so 
be sure the client and server are behind a worthy firewall.

Kent
