You haven't mentioned how you are running the remote Emacs.  I presume via X 
windows?

I have never been happy with the performance of X windows myself.  If I have to 
access remote stuff, my solutions are:

1. To try remote file access from a local Emacs session.  You can tunnel 
various file access protocols through SSH (I tunnel SMB from Windows), and 
there is also Emacs's own tramp which allows you to access remote files.

2. Run Emacs on the remote machine and connect to it from a locally run 
emacsclient.

Cheers,
Uday
