Can’t imagine using my system without this.

    I’ve used plenty of sshfs a few years ago, but x11 forwarding is a compromise. The latency makes it painful to work with for more than a few minutes.

      Yeah, X11 forwarding is only fine on a campus wide network, maybe city-wide at most, if the wan is fast enough.

      Sshfs would also be painful for operations processing a lot of data (grepping gigs of log files or even creating thumbnails of images to browse).
