  The disadvantage is that your ThinClient now needs at least 1 GB of RAM (see below).  
  
  However, the huge advantage is that there no longer is a need for any high-availibility setup concerning NFS (nor HTTP/HTTPS/FTP).  If you follow our advice of loading the entire image into the ThinClient's RAM, or using local storage,  all you need is an HTTP (HTTPS optional for later stages) or FTP server with a dedicated IP, if you want to use netbooting.  It is also possible to deploy the image
to the ThinClient's local storage, if present, and have it update in the background.
  
- Besides, making changes/updating the classic, NFS-based TCE (henceforth referred to as TCE-Classic) with the entire filesystem, not just its compressed image, spread out over the NFS share was rather finicky - with the current TCE-Live, you build and deploy a new image every time you make a change, and you can test it on a single client without interrupting your production environment.  The //local storage// feature can also be used to create a portable version of both X2Go-TCE and X2goClient for Windows, sharing the same configuration, on CD/DVD/USB media.

  We've also received reports that TCE-Classic wouldn't work with Jessie, or at least it was very hard to get it to work.
  Our TCE-Live works just fine with Jessie, and we expect it to work in Stretch and hopefully in Buster (Stretch+1) as well.
  The one catch is that the live-build package in Debian/the Debian-Live project is currently looking for a new maintainer - so there is a slim chance that live-build might be removed from Debian Buster, especially if no new maintainer steps up and the live-build replacement that is currently in the works (called live-wrapper) contains all the required functionality of live-build by then.
