Hmm, okay, so we need to implement a protocol to limit on the amount of
data that should be transmitted at once. That seems fair enough.
Of course, being able to actually copy such a large buffer would be even
better. But limiting seems to be a good, short term fix :)

Okay, I should have a fix for that posted to our patches list in the next
few days, and hopefully committed soon.
Great!
On a related issue, do you know of any X11 clients that will negotiate the
sending of JPEG, PNG or whatever pixmap data? We can often handle several
graphics formats within XEmacs, but I’d like something to test against
before advertising that we support it during type negotiation.
I think any QT-based application would be able to do this. I think I used
KolourPaint for this.
