Three cores would be a nice starting point. That's 33 concurrent
sessions each. If your concurrency is less than 100%, then you can get
by with less.
Some customers scale much higher than this (50/core) and some less (25/
core). It completely depends on the screen updates the users are
driving with applications and window management.
As far as memory goes, a very safe bet is 100MB/user. This would allow
for very large screens for each user and some headroom. For typical
1280x1024 screens, 75mb is more of what is seen.

Team,
I'm looking for practical numbers to use for sizing SRSS to host 100
concurrent users connect to VMWare View using the Sun Ray Connector
for VMware View Manager.
- How many Xeon 5540 (@2.53 GHz) cores would I need?
- How much memory per user should I plan?
BTW, the Xeon 5500-series "Nahalem" CPU's @ 2.5 GHz, which offer
significant performance compared to previous generations.
Thanks,
Jason
