Hello, I have a relatively clean patch to enable JPEG compression for Xpra. Is there general interest in that? If so, I'll forward a patch again Xpra current to the list.
The advantages of using optional jpeg compression are not necessarily obvious. In my tests I found that for text only traffic (emacs, terminals, etc) the message sizes sent over the wire actually increase unless a very low quality (with a corresponding bad image) is chosen. For other traffic like webbrowsing, the gain is sometime quite dramatic (reducing traffic sometime by 50-70%). For image intensive application (photo viewer, gimp, etc) traffic often reduced by as much as 95%. (Boh depending on the quality chosen. At quality setting 60 the savings are quite dramatic). Thanks. _______________________________________________ Parti-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.partiwm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/parti-discuss
