Remote Panner
Last night, using 0MQ I set up the image panner to use a remote renderer. This let me start up a REP/REQ system, where on the remote system (bound to localhost and ssh tunneled) I waited for new requests that describe the limits I wanted to plot, and locally I had the image panning GUI send the new requests and receive the new image. It worked great -- very easy to set up -- except that the arrays it was passing were 2MB each, so the latency to my home network was unbearably high. Today I'll give it a shot at work, see if it's a workable solution.
