View source for SSH from my Mac is very slow

[[Category:remotexs-faq]]
SSH from my Mac is very slow, but ''scp'' works fast.<br/>
<br/>
Chances are that X forwarding is not set up properly and you are waiting for it to time out.<br/>
Either use the '''-x''' option to start ''ssh'' without X forwarding, or try to enable X authentication by saying the following on the Mac:
  xauth generate :0 .
