Why RDP so laggy?

[sniffdog]

The reason why RDP is laggy is because a lot of data has to be transferred from the server to your screen.

I have a 16MBs connection and the RDP is just a little laggy. Of course it also depends how many people are connected.

the greatest thread basher foxman is having troubles with rdp
mate as u described in earlier post u use a 512k connection that might be a issue so please with your uploading money but atleast a 1mb connection

[zyberakuma]

ask for ping IP first, but in your case this is the main cause:

I use a 512kbps connection

[chaudhary9]

well 512kb/s connection is the reason of that lag.

i suggest you try teamviewer if you lag on rdp

i use 512kbps ... but there is no prob for me

Speed of RDP Generally Depends on

1) Location
Solution Check your ping
2) Users per Server
If speed of server is 1GBPS its not dedicated so maximum a server can push is 500MBPS and People are uploading @ speed of 400MBPS
That leaves 100MBPS for RDP Users with active users constantly figiting with RDP its most likely used up


Just my 2 cents

my connection is 1mbps and its a bit laggy.
its too laggy when u open images or videos.
So i suggest, minimize the graphics, and resolution.
Better go for Linux as they are blazing fast

reduce the colors to 15bit or 256 colors, reduce the desktop size, set the performance level to match your internet speed.

you can also try to add these lines in your default.rdp file in Windows 7 C:\Users\YOUR USER\Documents

bitmapcachesize:i:32000
bitmappersistcachelocation:s:\Temp

make sure

bitmapcachepersistenable:i:1

you can even set the value

session bpp:i:value

to 8 but the display will be a real crap

NOTE:
default.rdp is a hidden file, you can edit it with Notepad.
