I thought that X2Go uses nx-libs instead of X11 forwarding! User : mikedep333 @@ -57,8 +57,14 @@ - zlib is generic lossless compression, so it is not well-suited for images. nx-libs acheives better performance by using compression methods such as JPEG (default, lossy) or PNG (lossless.) - XCB applications are still partially hindered by round-trips, and nx-libs eliminates more of those round-trips. See [[https://lwn.net/Articles/343506/|Bart Massey's explanation]] for more info. The 1st 2 performance improvements also reduce bandwidth usage; which has the effect of improving performance when other users are sharing the same WAN link. + + ==== Why Am I told to enable X11 forwarding with X2Go?
