Actually, there is no such thing as a frame in the RFB protocol: it actually deals with damage regions which may be (much) smaller than the full frame. Also, even if you actually had a number of frames per second, it wouldn't be enough to say that a solution is better than another. You have latency to take into account, as well as image quality. As a result you are trying to measure the following values: - FPS - doesn't exist in RFB but you have updates per second - latency - nearly impossible to measure - image quality - there is no objective measurement representing the degradation felt by the user while what you really want is to estimate: - overall user experience The latter is a function of the former, but it's in the brain of each user, and it's different (some users care more about quality than latency, and so on). This explains why I claim that benchmarking remote visualization solutions is a lost cause. The most efficient way is to make people actually use it and ask for their opinion. For what it's worth, there are some things that you can benchmark - for example the required bandwidth at a given perceived image quality. But it's not going to be an objective measurement. -- Greetings, A.
