I'm not sure what you mean by "VNC configuration". If you are referring to the various polling options, then I can say that a 2CPU (4 virtual processors) 2GHz Xeon box has worse performance than a Celeron 566 with identical settings, over the same network.
Since this seems odd to me (that a far faster box has far worse performance), I had been attributing it to the number of CPUs (our dual-CPU boxes also have worse performance than a uniprocessor machine, all else being equal). If there are any registry tweaks I can do to get better performance, please let me know. I'd also be interested in a way to lock the winvnc service to a single processor (in the hopes that this would alleviate some/all of the slowness). Unfortunately, it seems (from the complete lack of response from listmembers) that most people don't use VNC on dual-CPU boxes. Can anyone confirm or deny this slowdown? It's pretty noticable, so if you are using dual or 4way boxes with VNC, you'd be hard pressed to not realize that it was slower. I'd just like to find out if the slowdown I'm seeing is generally experienced, or if there is something I can tweak to fix it.
