Sublime over ssh (X11/Xquartz) 256 colors compatibility

#1

Over ssh, I am getting a bad performance with Sublime on my Mac (it used to be good), it is very slow on default settings, i tried all encryption settings etc. It works perfect on ubuntu however, so it is something that changed on Mac.

When I change the setting of X11 so that it uses 256 colors, sublime runs VERY smooth, however text is unreadable (see below screenshot); changing the theme doesn’t help… Did anyone come across the same issue and/or has a possible solution?

Why are you running Sublime over SSH? I can’t help but think that it must be easier to run Sublime locally and remotely mount the disk with your files.
