Is there any tests that would profile this accurately so we can
get a handle on what is going on?

I am having the same problem, only it is intermittent on same machine.
Sometimes the performance is acceptable. But sometimes such as in abiword
when typing in the middle of a previously written sentence, it slows to a
crawl, like one char/sec showing up. The server shows virtually no load and
the network the same.


Also, sometimes it takes abiword 20secs to come to life while showing
little or no load on the server. however on the local server it is <3secs.

Load times are similar for other progs. (Mozilla/Gnumeric..)

I am using X3 on the clients and X4 on the server
Debian woody
ltsp v3
Server=Compaq 1.4Ghz P4/256MB/100mbit Intel e100
Client=66Mhz 486/#9GXe video 2MB ram/S3 server/10mbit SMC
Network is unloaded/single client running at this time.

I have never used anything but 10 Mbit and I am happy with it. The 10
Mbit nic perhaps does not negitiate well with the switch?
