Thank you for your response.

Please note that I am not connected "over a network". I am using the SSH
tunnel to connect to localhost so that physical networking is not an
issue.

I initially thought Matlab was the problem but I was very surprised to
think that inefficient code can cause a GUI to run 10-15 times more
slowly simply because it is being piped through ssh. I mean, nothing
really changes except that the ssh tunnel is inserted into the equation,
right ? The XWindow system is exactly the same, the hardware/driver
configuration is exactly the same and the application is exactly the
same. The only difference is the way these (and other) subsystems are
working together via ssh.

I've got to think that there is something else going on here.

Thanks again,
Curt
