My 2003 Terminal servers are configured with te exact same configuration.
Well we have machines half that in every respect that perform pretty well (although we don't have any multi user 2008 machines) and they don't have issues. Users complain but then what else is new. They don't see the big picture, and for the time they are using it, everyone on a team uses it for 4 hours, and they want to me to give them more resource for 4 hours out of the day, and the machines sit for the other 20 hours.. not a whole of of business need there, and I monitor the machines. Memory is fine, disk is fine, it's their programs that hog the machine, and each one of them have identical processes all at the same time.
So I tell them...it would appear you are all doing the same things at the same time, I think you need to communicate more effectively with your team, because you are duplicating your efforts. Since they spike the machine for very short periods of the day, relatively speaking, I don't see any reason to give them what they want, since they aren't technical. It wouldn't make a difference anyway.
So the bottom line is, I try to ensure that all the resources are there, they have everything they need and to them 'slow' is in comparison to their physical laptop.. And I have to run through the usual, well you don't have 9 other users connecting, you have a physical machine, and let's not forget when you are using remote desktop you AREN'T using your local machine at that moment are you...
Of course they can't say anything after that ![]()
