title: Is VNC faster than X11 Tunneling?
body: <p>I hope this questions lies in the realm of stackoverflow (I assume it does, as these tools are required for programming from a distance).</p>
  
  <p>I am curious, I hear that VNC is faster than X11 tunneling (i.e. Cygwin-X). Is this true? If so, why is this the case? My thinking was that they both boiled down to using ssh to tunnel the data from server to client. Why would one be faster than the other?</p>
  
  <p>Also, if I can be so bold, what VNC utility is decent for Windows (both commercial or free).</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
