Thanks Steve. I have tried VNCs before and I found X2Go better than any other. I tried to throttle using Charles with specifying 300-400 ms latency but from my location, it always shows the same result (70ms ping time).
I am going to try some other tool to check this issue. It is possible to change few settings in java application like heap memory etc. On Sat, Nov 23, 2013 at 7:51 PM, Steve Bergman <[email protected]> wrote: > No. Although both use the same underlying NX libraries, you can't mix and > match X2GO/FreeNX clients/servers.
