Software that is optimized for local display on a Linux workstation, such as rstudio , can have much higher performance using FastX , or may be completely incompatible with traditional remote X11. FastX displays may be disconnected and reconnected while not interrupting the remote processes. Software on the remote system writes to a virtual display, which is mapped to the desktop display using a protocol more like a video stream than X11. It is a faster alternative to traditional remote display using SSH with the X11 protocol. FastX is a commercial tool for rendering graphical output from remote Linux servers.
