From Internet access single application via VNC like
I am wondering what are my options to access one single gui application remotely, rather than full desktop, as VNC does.
Also lag is an issue. Any other way to make remote VNC, super responsive-- may be compression or dont know what, so would shut up and listen now
linux x11 vnc remote-desktop

VNC and similar solutions use a "virtual" X server, so make sure you run this in addition to a real X server, and make your application connect to this virtual server, while the rest of the desktop runs on the real X server. As a consequence, you won't be able to access this application directly from the desktop (though of course you can connect to the VNC server from the desktop, and then access the application). As for lag, bandwidth is bandwidth. Different VNC-like solutions use different algorithms, with may or may not work better for you. Evaluate them.
