Cool. This is very good info. AFAIC, we could enter beta with the project as well, and probably should so we can leverage your bug squashing. It would be nice to get out some official project builds that contain the performance improvements. I would still like to see a quantifiable test case that demonstrates the efficacy of setting the deferred update timer to 10 ms. Barring that, if you're insistent that 10 is what you want as a default, I would like to modify the build system such that that value can be tweaked using a #define or something like that, so my builds can use 1 ms as the default. It's pretty easy to tell people "if you want TurboVNC-like performance, set the compress level to 1", but telling them that they also have to remember to add -DeferUpdate=1 every time they launch vncserver makes things difficult. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Write once.
