hi group.

Sorry if this is a stupid question but I am new to x11.

I am running a small media suite of 50 imac g5's and an xserve, (i asked a question a few weeks ago and fixed my problems with the advice given)
and have started experimenting with x11. I have put it on all machines and have managed to get GIMP installed as the students need an image manipulation program. . All logged in users can open GIMP fine, x11 boots nicely etc. problem is that GIMP runs 3 times slower on network clients than when I run it on my laptop or any other computer locally. Is this speed decrease using x11 apps over a gigabit network to be expected? each g5 has a gig of ram.
Is it a memory cache issue? Is there a workaround? Thanks for any help or tips or pointers!


best
leon michener
