Glacially slow X performance



I am new to the Mac world--I got the latest 8 cpu MacPro and expected it
to rock.

But, trying both XDarwin and the Apple X11 on the install CD, I get
glacially slow performance. It took over 3 hours to finish running
"smart --gui"  on a remote Linux machine!

I have a fast Comcast internet connection (8 Mbps down and 750 kbps up).

This looks to me like the performance I used to get on Windows using
Xwin-32 before they implemented support for the render extension.

Am I doing something wrong? Is there a better way to get remote X to
work at reasonable speeds?

Thanks for the help,
Jim Rome
