Well, if the network bandwidth is your bottleneck (i donnot expect that now days), then switching from full color to 8 bits is reducing the bandwidth usage with up to 75 %: its 1 byte for every pixel in stead of 4 bytes for full color. In the days of analog phone liness with 33k6 baud bandwidth, that made a difference. > > Thanks > > > Date: Tue, 29 Sep 2009 10:41:56 +0200 > > From: cbee...@gmail.com > > To: roberto_mez...@hotmail.com > > CC: vnc-list@realvnc.com > > Subject: Re: Real VNC refresh rate very slow > > > > Roberto Meza wrote: > > > Any recommendations to speed up the refresh rate when connecting > to remote Windows XP PC's usigng Real VNC? > > > > > > I don't think this is a CPU or memory issue as both PC's are > pretty decent. > > > > > > Is this is normal?
