If you want to compare bandwidth usage reliably, you will need to measure
and compare the two sides of the same session: one measurement being the
browser <--> Guacamole traffic and the other being the guacd <--> RDP
traffic. For example, here's my statistics for the first week of December
last year:

The graph shows total Guacamole bandwidth usage (green line) against RDP
usage (orange line) for the same servers across all sessions. The purple
line is the total number of active sessions. In general, the two bandwidth
lines follow each other, however I've always observed the RDP line to be
significantly higher, presumably due to using poorer image compression. The
only times I've seen the Guacamole line peek (slightly) above the RDP line
are when there is extremely low activity.

If you are absolutely sure that you are measuring effectively the same
sessions, connecting to the same RDP server, and that you are using the
same display size, performing the same actions, seeing the same graphics,
etc. between them, I'm not sure what would account for your measurements
showing the opposite behavior.
