Dear Bug Team!
When running Xemacs version 21 remotely (displaying on my local X
server) I have found that any multicharacter kills (such as kill-line,
kill-word, kill-ring-save, etc.) are extremely slow (maybe 15-30
seconds per kill). I only see this delay when I am running over a DSL
connection where the ping times to the remote system are on the order
of 100 milliseconds or more. When my local machine is on the same LAN
as the remote machine (much shorter ping times), I do not notice any
unusual delay in multicharacter kills. I also do not see this problem
when running Xemacs version 20.
My local X server when using the DSL connection is Exceed 3D running
under Microsoft Windows 98SE. When using the LAN, my local X server
is also Exceed 3D but running under Microsoft Windows 2000.
I have also received exactly the same complaints sometimes, the server
side XEmacs being 21.4.6+ on Red Hat 7.x and the "remote X client"
X-Win32 [1] on Windows XP.
