Hello, We added the sleep=0 option in the /etc/x2go/x2goagent.options file.
X2GO_NXOPTIONS="sleep=0" In the /etc/x2go/x2goserver.conf file, we enabled the superenicer,i.e., changed enable=no to enable=yes. [superenicer] # enable the SupeReNicer code in x2gocleansessions, this will renice suspended s essions to nice level 19 # and renice them to level 0 if the session becomes marked as running again... enable=yes and removed the comment from idle-nice-level and kept the value of 19 # the idle nice level (for suspended sessions) idle-nice-level=19 Then we rebooted our system. With these changed settings we were able to see comparable processing speeds and CPU usage for active vs suspended sessions. This was our desire because many times we have to run processes overnight or over the course of several days while the session is suspended. h ________________________________ From: Ulrich Sibiller <ul...@gmx.de> Sent: Tuesday, June 2, 2020 3:14 AM To: h i <qpile...@outlook.com> Cc: x2go-user@lists.x2go.org <x2go-user@lists.x2go.org> Subject: Re: [X2Go-User] Suspending sessions causes performance slowing down On Tue, Jun 2, 2020 at 3:04 AM h i <qpile...@outlook.com> wrote: > I ran a few tests and see the issue is GUI related in our case.

If I set the > value to 1000, what would that mean? This defines how long nxagent should sleep. The unit should be microseconds but there's a ticket for doublechecking that because it looks like a mixup happened during implementation (https://github.com/ArcticaProject/nx-libs/issues/928). > Is the idle-nice-level=19 for suspended sessions the default setting? As I said I don't know the superreniver feature in detail. > Would the supernicer setting override the x2goagent sleep option setting? no, they are two different things. > What would be an example command for the -irlimit option in x2goagent.options > file. see https://github.com/ArcticaProject/nx-libs/issues/796 Uli
