X11 forwarding is not even the best option for remote rendering on X11. You will get better results with VNC or NX/Xpra.

  I guess it depends on what you mean by "best." For me, X11 forwarding: - works out of the box, no config needed - works on an application level rather than desktops; this is key - doesn't require anything network-wise but SSH - doesn't require me to modify servers in tightly controlled environments These are all mandatory requirements for me.

    That is how all other remoting solutions work. X11 forwarding just happens to be the worst one.

      No other solution I am aware of meets that criteria, happy to be shown otherwise.

        I mentioned three solutions. In general you can make a lot of things "just work" with SSH, by using port forwarding.
