Since upgrading from FC2 to FC3, remote X applications have slowed tremendously. Before, apps like kmail were a bit laggy, but usable. Now I can watch it paint the windows piece by piece. Copying a line of text from a remote app caused my local X desktop (also running FC3) to lock up for over a minute.
Possibly related to this are a bunch of X errors like X Error: BadAtom (invalid Atom parameter) 5 Major opcode: 18 Minor opcode: 0 Resource id: 0x188 These are printed continuously in the ssh window.
I'm using ssh -X -C -2 -l <username> <hostname> to log in, same as before.
Use ssh -Y not ssh -X. It's a security thing, read the man page.
