Just to finish the thread, turning compression on seems to have helped.
ssh -X -C user@host
I did not report that earlier because at first it did not work. The
above animations were collected after turning it on. I guess it took a
while to take effect!
If I start X first (startx), then in another CygWin I ssh to the
target machine, the system is slow.
If I ssh to the target machine first, then startx, the system is fast.
So this irritation is sufficiently worked-around, yet there's still
something going on in there!
