Hello.
I'm experiencing some strange (to me at least) behaviour when connecting to my virtual desktops (linked clones) over PCoIP.
Whenever I open a new connection (using Dell Wyse P25 zero clients, latest firmware), fast movements inside the desktop appear somewhat jerky/laggy. For instance, dragging around windows shows noticeable jerkiness.
However, if I keep dragging windows around for a while (like 10 seconds or so, I haven't actually timed it), the jerkiness disappears and fast movements become way more fluid than before (the way it's supposed to be).
As far as I could tell, once the desktop is "fluid", it will stay that way - UNLESS you disconnect the session and reopen it (same session, no logoff required) - then the jerkiness will return.
Does this ring a bell for anyone? To me it sounds like there's some kind of power management going on, but I've already disabled power management policies on every level I can think of: on the physical servers, in ESXi and the guest OS (Win 7 x64).
Some more details on my setup:
- ESXi 5.5.0, 1623387
- Horizon View 5.3
- HP Gen8 blade servers w/ 2 x 10 core Xeon E5 each
- VMs have 2 vCPU and 4 GB RAM, running Windows 7 Professional SP1
- 3D rendering enabled
Also, there's virtually no load on the ESXi hosts at the moment, as this is pretty much just a lab environment right now.
Please let me know if you need to know anything else.
Thanks!
Dan
