随着瘦客户机系统的日益普及，确定控制这些瘦客户机体系结构性能的因素变得非常重要。为了评估瘦客户机计算模型的可行性，我们测量了六种流行的瘦客户机平台Citrix MetaFrame、Microsoft Terminal Services、Sun Ray、Tarantella、VNC和X在广泛的网络访问带宽上运行的性能。我们发现，瘦客户端系统可以在局域网环境中的Web和多媒体应用程序上表现良好，但瘦客户端协议的效率差异很大。我们分析了各种方法的差异，并解释了底层远程显示协议对整体性能的影响。我们的研究结果量化的影响，不同的方法在显示编码原语，显示更新政策，显示缓存和压缩技术在广泛的瘦客户端系统。
The growing popularity of thin-client systems makes it important to determine the factors that govern the performance of these thin-client architectures. To assess the viability of the thin-client computing model, we measured the performance of six popular thin-client platforms—Citrix MetaFrame, Microsoft Terminal Services, Sun Ray, Tarantella, VNC, and X—running over a wide range of network access bandwidths. We find that thin-client systems can perform well on web and multimedia applications in LAN environments, but the efficiency of the thin-client protocols varies widely. We analyze the differences in the various approaches and explain the impact of the underlying remote display protocols on overall performance. Our results quantify the impact of different approaches in display encoding primitives, display update policies, and display caching and compression techniques across a broad range of thin-client systems.
