I know of two sites on Windows 7 and a multibranch system with a Linux
thin client setup. There may be a couple of others on one or another
version of Windows.

Jeff,
Is there an OS version that this happens on more often? I'm looking
at you, Windows 10.
Thanks,

Our consortium has a few libraries where the Evergreen staff client
periodically becomes unusably slow or freezes up altogether. I'm curious
about other libraries' experiences with this problem.
1. Does the staff client slow down or freeze up regularly at your library?
How often does it happen? Are there any noticeable patterns (e.g. are only
circ stations affected, not cataloguing)?
2. How do you deal with the problem? We usually recommend limiting the
number of open tabs, restarting the client periodically throughout the day,
and increasing RAM.
3. If you use the web client, have you noticed an improvement? We suspect
that the root of the problem is the ancient version of XULrunner used by the
old staff client, but we haven't had the opportunity to compare the web
client in production.
