Have you actually tried that in recent years? In my experience not much actually works this way anymore, the performance is just terrible.
- lucb1e 4y agoThis. It takes hundreds of megabits per second to work smoothly. If you're doing this while on the move, your mobile data is going to be gone in a literal matter of seconds, if the network were fast enough to support it, which it isn't so in reality you're going to be frustrated and wondering why you didn't use a different protocol. From VM to host or on gigabit LAN it works okay, which is where I've used it before. I used X forwarding a lot until last year, so I can find various arguments for it, but "while on the move" makes absolutely no sense.
