What about client memory? My clients all have between 64 and 128 Mb.
Does giving them more memory make much of a difference?

Video RAM on the clients might make some difference, but video RAM on
the server probably wouldn't. EG, if your X server is caching lots of
pixmaps, or you're doing GLX (mesa) with lots of texture maps... I'd
expect those to increase video RAM needs on the clients.
Gigabit might be helpful. So might adding a small disk to each box, and
using NX. VNC might help as well, without the extra disk, but it
probably wouldn't help as much. Both NX and VNC would likely reduce the
need for a faster network.
Drive speed on the server matters if you have apps running on the
server, displayed on the clients, that are I/O intensive.
If you want to find the bottlenecks on your system, dstat can be a
helpful tool...
