On the remote server I got several cpp files which I need to compile and run (and thus edit them alot) on the remote server. Now I mounted the remote folder but editing the files is very slow when I want to save them. (about 20 seconds for a file !!!)
The only thing I can think of would be to copy (or scp) the cpp files to your local workstation to mess with them. Then when you are done, just move them back over to the server for storage.
Is anyone else using the same files? How many cpp files are we talking about here?
Take that back - one other option:
_IF_ the remote server has KDE or GNOME installed, you could run the tightvnc server on it, and connect to it from your workstation via vnc. This will keep all CPU crunching on the remote server where the files are, and your workstation will only transfer keyboard, mouse, and video across the network. This would be the fastest...
Well, thats the problem, the server sits in the university.
I need to do an assignment in c++ and the only place it will run as expected is on that server since it is configured uniquely.
I can only get text mode so GUI won't work there.
