That does of course raise the interesting point that part of the remote
performance issue could be an X server issue. Fortunately I've got XMing
on another laptop, so selecting one of the more "complete" sets of tests:

remote (XMing)
gtk 5.1
gtk2 199.9

gtk 5.0

In the case of the gtk2 test I also time a 6 second "Big Freeze" between
the form appearing and being usable.
I admit to being very surprised here by gtk1 being faster but gtk2 being
so much slower. However this isn't a particularly recent copy of XMing-
the machine is used for mundane but important jobs like setting up the
PABX and it doesn't get fiddled with.
