View client for OSX PCoIP extremely laggy

I have a win7 vm on esxi 5.0 and view 5.0.0.  BTL is turned off.  It runs perfect / no lag via PCOIP on Windows using the view client, as well as on my Galaxy Tab.  3d is turned on with 128mb vram.

However, when I attempt to use the latest OSX client on my mid-2010 IMAC 21.5" running 10.7, the desktop is extremely laggy, to the point where it is unusable.  I also have an XP VM and when connected via the OSX client, its performance is also abysmal.

Any ideas??

Having the same issue here, of two new MacBooks, OS 10.7, one appears to run with relatively little lag, but the other is easily 3-4x slower. The only differences between the two are that the slower one is running XCode + iOS SDK, Office 2011 (which includes the MS Remote Desktop Client), Lync 2011, Acrobat Reader, Flash and Chrome. Perhaps one of those installs has somehow impacted the PCoIP implementation on that system. Just grasping at straws at the moment.

The PCoiP client for Mac has ran just find on My Mac Leopard as speed and lag go. The only issue with mine it does not take the full screen, but I am Ok with that as it leave my Mac application quite accessible when using the View client. I am using View Client for Mac 1.5 on Mac Leopard 10.6.8.
