Hi Mohamed,

Yes, you will find usefull to swicht to another desktop enviroment as
IceWM in order to reduce the load of the server.

I would probe making a custom config of IceWM to solve the most of the
taks of the users (launch StarOffice, etc) and then I would make this
custom IceWM as the default desktop and I would see the load of the
server.

You can try also disable memory intensive apps like screen savers.

Hope this help.

Cheers

Offray Vladimir
