Ok to ask a proper question is that for login and working in the remote desktop, nxclient seems to be much quicker and responsive than x2go client in windows. Is there a reason or still need to wait for newer versions?

I have no clue why it would behave this way, but could you please give more details like what versions of both programs did you use, what MS Windows versions, maybe some timings (for example for login or responsiveness) so that others can compare that with their setup?

Thanks,

Paul

Hi Paul, The problem is that I find x2go whether it is local or internel takes a bit more time for it to authenticate than nxclient which is more instantaneous. Also another thing I see is that the bandwitdh consumption is quite high on x2go. The windows doesnt matter whether it is windows 2000 or windows xp same results. Also I am running the Ubuntu desktop on a debian XEN 3.2 server. I assigned 1GB ram to the Ubuntu 9.10 domU. The pfsense firewall is also a domU on the same server. Also a trixbox VoIP system domU with a pci 4 port telephony card. The server hardware is :-

       Phenon II X4 925
       8GB RAM DDR II 800 Mhz
       500GB x 2
       4 GbE nics

There is also a windows 2003 running there where rdp is running extremely smooth with about 3 people accessing it at any one time. The bandwitdh on it is always whether login in or using is below 200k. X2go or nxclient always spikes up above 500-800K when just login in. When using it jumps up and down between 200k - 2Mbps. I get this also not only in windows also when the client is Ubuntu.

Hi, This seems better. Ok to ask a proper question is that for login and working in the remote desktop, nxclient seems to be much quicker and responsive than x2go client in windows. Is there a reason or still need to wait for newer versions? Interesting. Our initial testing is showing X2Go much faster than NoMachine on Linux. Older versions of X2Go on Windows proved to be unusably slow for us. I think this had more to do with Xming than X2Go. That is why we moved away from X2Go until the release of 3.0.1-4. That appears to be performing satisfactorily although we are just starting our Windows testing. I assume the basic problem is the performance of

Does anyone have experience on accelerating the X Server under Windows or faster alternatives to XMing? Thanks - John

Some potential tweaks are available on here :- http://www.straightrunning.com/XmingNotes/trouble.php

I wonder how well Cygwin XServer performs ?

My ignorant understanding is that Cygwin is slower - John
