Re: Terminal Sessions performance

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

There are also good performance stuff in the book I mentioned as well.

Do you adding another 1 or 2 GB of ram will resolve the performance issue?

Or do you suggest in adding more ram and another Processor?

What you have is probably a hyperthreading showing as two processors.
Try
adding a second processor, this should help. It may also be that your
application is very resource intensive and your servers were never
properly
sized. You may also try adding more memory because high CPU and high
pagefile could indicate you have run out of memory and it is paging
excessively to make up for the fact.

Have you checked in Task Manager on the server if there is a single
application which uses most of the CPU? 16-bit application are known
to monopolise the CPU.

Before you buy additional hardware, run Performance Monitor on the
server to ensure that the CPU is really the bottleneck. Could be
something else as well, like memory, page file, disk I/O.

mar 2006 in microsoft.public.windows.terminal_services:

I am running Windows 2003 Terminal Server and it is our
Application server as well. I have 28 nodes running all
application from the Server through RDP sessions. This is a thin
client environment. Is there anyway to improve performance?

Throughout the week there is performance downgrade, CPU is
running between 80 - 100% and I have to sometimes reboot the
server to increase performance.

Any suggestions to detect the bottlenecks and how to improve
performance?

Thanks
