[Jabref-users] Remote usage through ssh renders JabRef unusable

[Alvaro T. C. <Alv...@ph...>]

Hello,

We are working in a computing environment where some users have only a=20
terminal through which they access via ssh the real computers somewhere=20
in the network. For this users, and also for me through remote ssh -X,=20
jabref becomes extremely slow.

Further data:

* Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_06-b03)
   Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2_06-b03, mixed mode)

* JabRef 1.6

* ~8 seconds to load remotely on a PIV-3.2MHz

* several seconds to have the preview window refresh after changing the
   selected entry.

* no difference local-remote when running without GUI via jabref -n.

* other java programs run in similar times locally and remotely
   (eclipse, jedit).

* works really smoothly locally and also through ssh to myself.

* our test file is 84K long, ~150entries.



The program becomes unusable for those in our group working remotely.=20
This is a pity, since otherwise we are extremely satisfied (and by the=20
way, wish to thank and congratulate the developers).


So...

Do you have any clue about what is going on?

I didn't find relevant bug/forum entries. Shall I post this as a bug=20
report?
