In other words a worthless measurement pf speed. The processor used in the Pi 3 actually runs at just a little over 1 MIP per GHz (more or less.) If you are seeing poor performance with remote X11, I'd suspect poor network in performance. The best networking performance will be to use a USB 1000 BaseT dongle You will not get full gigabit level performance but it will outperform the built-in 100 BaseT interface. Then make sure you have a gigabit switch going to the PC. The advantage here is that you are NOT running an x-server on the Pi 3. Any work you can off load from there Pi 3 is good. Check memory usage using "top" The Machine kit people (if I understand it correctly) are breaking up LinuxCNC to run as a set of independent processes that communicate with messages. If Im right then it looks like the goal might be to have the ability to run the GUI on a different computer then HAL. This is the best design, not exporting the display, but the entire GUI program.
