Most of my development work happens on remote kvm machines with ssh and tmux. The best thing about this is that there is no heat and noise from fans spining mad. Since most changes are device agnostic, I use qemu vm to do run-test [1]. It's quite handy and I do not often need to touch actual hardware these days... I use sshfs to transfer files to local machines, only occasionally when the work has to be done on real devices. I prefer sshfs for the same reason as for pppossh: it's already there and no extra work to configure each remote host.
