Most X programs store their bitmaps in the X server - not the program.
You can see this if you look at the memory usage. So lots of data is
transfered if using gimp :)

BTW: If you can use cable instead of wireless, you may have a _much_
better experience, because of the latency that wireless adds.

BTW2: If your bandwidth is really small, you should use VNC instead of
ssh-X - though that's not to nice with image editing :)

Bye,
Daniel
