If you're using the VGL Transport (vglconnect), then remote X11 is what's happening. The VGL Transport is not recommended over slow connections for that reason (because the non-3D elements of the GUI have to be sent using remote X11, which is extremely fine-grained and thus very slow on high-latency connections-- particularly when you're talking about a toolkit like Swing that is not particularly well optimized for remote X11 usage.) This is literally the reason why TurboVNC was created. Strongly advise using it or another X proxy when connecting over a slow link.
