I am using SSH and Xming to run Simics simulator and connect to some Linux guest machine. I use x11 Tunneling. The x server seems to be very slow and I need to spend a long time to run a single command on the linux guest machine. Do you have any idea what might cause the problem? Is this the problem of ssh secure shell or the xming?

Thanks.

Traffic compression might solve your problem. Use ssh -C
