Since the anti-communication (err, "spam prevention") technologies on this list prevented this mail from coming through, I'm forwarding it on behalf of "Lithium 3".
Based on Lithium's comments, and my experience, it would appear that VNC does have massive performance issues on a dual Xeon (which looks like 4 CPUs) architechture. Can anyone else confirm this? Does anyone have an actual 4-way machine with VNC, and do you see this problem? We do not get this problem on our dual-CPU boxes, although the performance on them is also also less than the performance on a single CPU box (but not as bad as the "4-way" dual Xeon).

Jordan, I have just the same observation. I can't install VNC336 on our brand new HP 370 dual-xeon 2.4G citrix farm machines. (also 4 cpu config) It just takes down both the server as the console to a _crawl_. (as in: my P60 works better!!) [2000SP3/O2000SP3/Citrix MFXP_FR2] ps: if this mail doesn't appear on the mailing list, could you please post it for me? I can't seem to get anything posted on the list :( kind regards, R -- I just recently installed a new server. It's a dual-Xeon 2.4GHz box, with Hyperthreading enabled. This causes the system to act as if it had 4 physical CPUs (although there are only 2). The VNC server performance on this machine is /horrible/. Even on the Does anyone have any experiences like these?
