I'm not sure what the point would be in basically paying for VNC.  The
whole point of NX is that it modifies the X protocol so that there is
less back-and-forth between the local server and remote clients by
acting as a local client to the server and a remote server to the
clients.  But, when clients are just sending huge blobs of images, all
it can do is transmit them.
