Measuring performance is often subjective. Depending on what your friend
and you are doing, that could very well explain differences. For example,
if one of you is doing graphics-intensive work, and the other doing simple
tasks, guess where some differences will be?
Also, keep in mind that the VNC viewer (client) needs to have the tight
encoding enabled; it's not an automatic thing. Obviously, the VNC server
needs to have the tight encoding built in as well.
I have used VNC over dialup sessions at speeds less than you achieved. I
found it to be "acceptable" for what I was doing -- reading my UNIX email
in an xterm.
