If you are on a slower link, you may want to tweak the speed and quality settings to better suit your preferences: quality vs bandwidth vs latency/framerate, choose one. By default, Xpra is optimized for faster links because that's what most users have - at least those that file tickets.
You may also want to file your own ticket if you find that specific and reproducible bandwidth conditions trigger abnormally large lag. Newer versions should improve this. Please always specify which version you are using for testing, what distribution, etc. > For example if I open google maps on remote computer and zoom in and out ... experience is not great. > On the other hand, I am struggling to get any of the opensource versions of > NX to work (including one from WinSwitch). NX open-source has been abandoned a long time ago. > Is it worth the effort? No. > Is NX technology any different from Xpra. Yes, NX was quite efficient when applications were painting the screen using X11 primitives, as it is compressing those requests. But very few applications do that any more. It lacks all the progress made in video compression that happened in the last ~10 years or so. > Will it be faster compared to Xpra? Very very unlikely. > BTW, I only need seamless mode.
