Hi,
If you are experiencing slower response times when using MATLAB 2021b or above via X11 forwarding through SSH, there are few potential suggestions you can try to improve performance :
- Enable compression for X11 forwarding by adding the "-C" flag using the code below when establishing the SSH connection to compress the data before transmitting it over the network, which can help improve performance in certain scenarios.
ssh -XC user@remote_host
- You can disable X11 authentication by adding the "-Y" flag when establishing the SSH connection to reduce the overhead associated with X11 authentication if security is not a concern in your environment using the below command :
ssh -XY user@remote_host
- MATLAB's editor includes various graphical features that can consume resources and slow down performance. Disabling these features can help improve the responsiveness of the editor.
- You can try increasing the X11 forwarding speed by adjusting the compression level or using alternative compression methods. You can specify the compression method by using the '-o' flag when establishing the SSH connection using the below command :
ssh -XC -o Compression=<method> user@remote_host
You can also try increasing the CompressionLevel option to improve compression efficiency:
ssh -XC -o CompressionLevel=<level> user@remote_host
Hope this helps.
Thankyou
