I have a machine with G2 beta on Solaris 9 as well. I can display single
apps from it to a Solaris 8/Sparc machine and also to an x86 laptop
running Debian Woody. I see no such slowdowns. When displaying to the
Debian machine, apps crash with an XKeyboard assertion as soon as I
touch the keyboard.. haven't investigated further right now.

Try running 'truss -f -p <pid of gnome application>' when it's starting
to see what it's waiting for..
