Here are some more observations from me: when you have a weak/slow client (Vcxsrv and XMing seem to be rather slow on my old laptop with WinXP) and heavy server, the xrdp seems to be working better. When you have rather powerful client and want to reduce amount of software rendering on server-side, X2Go seems to be better.
This is definitely the case. Depending on the desktop session manager used with X2Go you can observe more rendering CPU consumption on the client (for old style desktop shells like XFCE, LXDE etc.) or more CPU consumption for rendering on the server (GNOME3, Unity, Plasma et al.).
However, as the old-style desktop shell are rather extensive CPU cylcle consumers, the server-side rendering becomes more evident to the user. X2Go decreases in performance the more widget rendering happens on the server (as those rendered entities have to be transferred as bitmap-like graphics).
2developers: please, correct me if I'm saying smth wrong, as I don't know much about the internals of X11-related software.
Nable, thanks for throwing in your 2¢. Mike -- DAS-NETZWERKTEAM mike gabriel, herweg 7, 24357 fleckeby fon: +49 (1520) 1976 148 GnuPG Key ID 0x25771B31 mail: [email protected], http://das-netzwerkteam.de freeBusy: https://mail.das-netzwerkteam.de/freebusy/m.gabriel%40das-netzwerkteam.de.xfb
