X isn't great over wide area networks, there are to many backward and forward conversations between the client and server meaning that any latency lag soon multiplies to painful extents. I'm sitting here managing a bunch of servers in the US on the other end a 110ms delay line (AKA the big puddle). So I tend to run remote stuff inside a VNC desktop, which I still tunnel through SSH.
