It may be true that the display code is very inefficient there. But
I don't think it is that reasonable to expect an X program to be
snappy fast over a high latency WAN connection. There are many
issues with throwing a display remotely. Many programs have been
written to try to optimize it. But it remains a hard problem.
Instead I definitely recommend that you try using emacs in text mode.
That is the original operation mode. It is really quite a fine
terminal screen editor. The performance of throwing whold characters
over the Internet will be much better than throwing pixels over the
Internet.
