Without an FPS booster VNC takes between 4 and 8 percent, with an FPS booster we're looking at 20% which is enough to affect the servers running on the box. I'm aware other things may also be affected, but when one process is eating 20% of your CPU and the others are still around the 5% mark it's something to be aware of. I can't say what the load is when not connected via VNC because VNC is the only thing we use to admin the servers. > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected]> Subject: Re: [hlds] > Windows Equivalent of Dynamic ticks in Linux?> Date: Fri, 16 Mar 2007 > 21:49:55 +1100> > --> [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ]> Yes I > am aware that increasing the timer resolution does increase the over> all CPU > resources used, the way Gigabit Nick put it, was that VNC was more> adversely > affected by the increase in timer resolution, or at least that is> how I read > it.> > On 3/16/07, Steven Hartland <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:> >> > Whisper > wrote:> > > --> > > [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ]> > > > Does that also occur if VNC is running on the box, but nobody is> > > > actually logged into VNC?
