Hmm I just connected to my Win2K SNAP box with Real VNC and the CPU on the NAS box was flipping back and forth between 3 and 4 percent CPU time while idling. When I open something, it spikes to 29-30 percent for a brief second, but then drops again.
That does not seem too awfully high and this is on real old CPQ box with only a P2 600, so it's a slow PC. It has 384megs of RAM, with an Adaptec 2400a running IDE drives as RAID5 I use for remote file storage. Since I only use it for file storage, I probably don't see CPU spikes like you do with playing back video and such. >>Currently I use TIghtVNC to control my HTPC over the LAN.
