You will never find the answer since there is no answer. vnc allows all you can get. In the end, it can slow down a bit but that does not stop vnc from working. The number of viewers (both M$Windows or unix based) (and/or unix based vnc-servers) on a system is (a.o.) limited by: Used operating system Used hardware architecture Running other applications Activiti of other processes processor speed available memory available network bandwidth available ports compression settings polling frequency (for M$Windows servers only) display activity (for unix/X11 servers only) geometry of vnc-server colordepth of vnc-server For viewers only: the max mumber of viewers is also restricted by: geometry of local display colordepth of local display local video hardware In general, I'd say the workable number of viewers on a display is about 4 open vncviewer windows. Closed viewer windows only occupy memory, the update of those sessions is stopped so they don't consume cpu power or network bandwidth. For M$Windows based vnc-servers, the number of servers is restricted to 1 (one) for the default server on default os-installation.
