    Does the X protocol buffer requests like that?  Last time I looked,
    it didn't do much buffering before transmitting on the wire.

A user program such as the X server doesn't directly "transmit on the
wire"; it writes data to the kernel.  I think the kernel has lots
of buffering.  I don't know whether Linux provides a way to put
any limit on the buffering.
