Hey Jason-
What kind of box is the CentOS box ? (Meaning x86 with x amount of
memory and cpu, etc...)
Yeah, we've known for awhile now that a Sparc server does not really
make a very
high performance Sun Ray server when being used as the login server
where your
sessions live , but the T1000/2000 screams when being used as RDP
passthrough
or as you're doing in using it to deliver the CentOS sessions. It scales
incredibly as
well. We've got customers getting up to 500 users on a T2000 when a fail
over happens
with out any real performance hit.

I guess that depends on the situation, because I just came back from a
test in my largest sunray lab (30 stations) and found performance more
than acceptable.
We have a T1000 as a sunray server (poor choice for an interactive
system, but that mistake was all mine). I fire up 30 remote sessions
with 30 different users to a quad 2.4GHz CentOS box, and found that
desktop performance was _better_ than JDS on the T1000 (a direct
sunray login). The CentOS box and the T1000 are connected via a
gigabit ethernet which is shared among my server farm and used for NFS
and other server-to-server traffic (but not sunray or general IP
traffic).
