So I've got about 300 people using VNC around here. The most common way to
use it is with a Windows viewer connecting to a UNIX server. Many times in
the evening, some of my users want to access their environment from home,
and most have DSL connections. I've started hearing complaints about poor
performance across DSL.
I myself don't have DSL. I have to suffer with ISDN. But, it works great
for me. Users are reporting that they can see the windows redrawing across
their screen. The same users are saying they see much better performance
using Citrix to connect to a Windows server and running Exceed from there!
Is this a function of the "asynchronous" nature of DSL?
Is this possible a problem with how our VPN is configured?
I don't relish suggesting turning on zlib or tight encoding, as even on
ISDN I notice a performance degradation, and wouldn't want to make a bad
situation worse.
What are suggestions on how I can ferret out what's really going on here?
