This is something that we do a lot in school, when sitting on crappy
workstation we often login remotely to a faster server-type machine. We
use "xon", though we have never tried it with SDL it should work nicely
since SDL is working on top of X and xon works transparently on
X-traffic.

The bottleneck here is probably the network.. but if computation power
is favored over grafik output speed, it should not be a problem on a
reasonably fast network.
