I'm on a connection which typically runs less than 150kbps and remote X operation is tolerable. Starting an application takes 10 seconds rather than the normal 1 second, but once running the graphics updates are less than half second intervals. This is using a normal telnet session. No secure shells or VNC. From my experience, VNC is quite a bit slower than X. Sorry I can't suggest a remedy.
