RDP vs PCOIP. When to use one over the other?

I think we'll run into problems of latency coming on WAN. That being said, I have heard PCOIP performance is not good over the WAN?  Why is better RDP over a WAN link?

The answer to that is a bit tricky...

The quick answer is that PCoIP is a hitter more than RDP, due to improvements in PCoIP to improve multimedia performance (and unfortunately), but takes a little more bandwidth than an equivalent RDP connection.

That being said, PCoIP remains most likely your best choice unless you have a real bandwidth restriction. In addition, some devices will NOT connect via PCoIP and will not allow a RDP connection (the client in order for the iPad comes to mind). However, there are exceptions, even to - Wyse allowing an iDevice to client that will connect to view using RDP if you want - but it's not free.

I've set up several clients with external access using PCoIP and personally, I have not had any problems - PCoIP is good enough, adjusting it according to the available bandwidth, but you will not really know until you try.

The good news is that it is very easy to change the settings of PCoIP/RDP - the console administrator display, you can specify the Protocol by default and even decide if the users can change it or not. Also the clients, you can allow to change between RDP and PCoIP if they experience performance problems.

So my final answer is just give it a try and adjust if necessary.

  • Debug vs out - why should I use one over the other

    Hi all

    I have always understood that in the preparation for the final release software and delivery that this should be done using the Release configuration. It's the way that other companies offer their software, so it just makes intuitive sense to me. However, I recently came across a project developed and published all of their modules in software using the build configuration Debug, and reasoning that gave me was that it makes debugging easier when troubleshooting problems after release. Now we intend to use this software for a new project, and I don't know that I am ready to support this reasoning. Beyond reason "because I said!", there are several reasons why I think this isn't a good idea:

    1. it is slower to run debugging code. but for what we use for (drivers and utilities for the most part) it is negligible.

    2. There is a potential for malfunctions due to debug code that results in errors or be out of date.

    3. There could be differences between the debug and release configurations (no not the least of which is the use of the _CVI_DEBUG_ macro to include the additional debugging code).

    4 if I remember correctly, to debug properly, the source code must also be available; and for me, this is a big fat no-no giant for a production environment.

    So, beyond reasons I quoted above, and assuming that they are all valid, can anyone provide additional reasons for or against this practice? Any comments would be extremely helpful! Thank you!

    -Jack

    Hello Jack,.

    It is indeed surprising that the company has decided to ship built in the debug configuration.

    Here are some more reasons other debug versions offering isn't a good practice:

    1. The Debug versions are slower due to lack of optimizations.

      1. The compiler tends to optimize the code in release builds, to make it more faster and perform better on specific platforms (it can also slightly obfuscate the code).
      2. The useless instructions or data are deleted in release builds.
    2. Less memory is used by the source code when running in release builds.
    3. The Debug versions may contain debug information stored in the executable/binary file itself. This debugging information is stores the data on the source code, the names of variables and others. This allows not only the code to run more slowly, but it also exposes internal information (this can probably still provide proprietary information to your users).
    4. Debug builds usually initialize variables and data with 0. This means that programmatic errors are usually hidden by the present.
    5. Debug builds are usually (much) bigger than the trade and slower versions.

    There are other alternatives to shipped debugging binary and perform diagnostics on them:

    1. Newspapers: The embedded application can produce newspapers in the special files/folders or the Windows event log. You can also ask your customers to allow facilities to record special in your application, if the problem can be reproduced consistently and provide the log output for you, for further analysis.
    2. Dumps can be analyzed using the same map files for release builds. Crash address usually refers to a location near a function entry point, you can track your mapping files. When you build your binary files in release configuration, the compiler can also generate the map files that you need.

    In addition, as ebalci said, you must make sure that test you your Release version carefully, before shipping.

    Kind regards

    whenever I have send an email on my hotmail my computer crashes when I use firefox! the Explorer is fine. Why so much?
    This began to happen 1 week ago.
    I tried to uninstall firefox a few times and it still does not work!
    does anyone have a solution?

    Hello

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • You can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.

    Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    Also, try to bypass the cache

    Reload the Web page while bypassing the cache using one of the following steps:

    • Hold down the SHIFT key and click the reload with a left click button.

    OR

    • Press Ctrl + F5 or Ctrl + SHIFT + R (Windows and Linux)
    • Press command + SHIFT + R (Mac)

    If it does not help disable HWA used in firefox.

    You will have to perhaps restart Firefox for it to take effect, so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.).

    Then perform the following steps:

    • Click on the orange top left Firefox button, then select the 'Options' button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to tools > Options.
    • In the Firefox options window, click the Advanced tab, and then select 'General '.
    • You will find in the list of parameters, the checkbox use hardware acceleration when available . Clear this check box.
    • Now restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.

    In addition, please check the updates for your graphics driver by following the steps in the following knowledge base articles:

    I'm more interested in the case when this number is smaller than the total.

    Hello

    I think you mean the text stating "x of there matches", to the right of the box where you entered the search term.

    The first number ("x" in my example above) indicates the current entry highlighted on the page that matches the search phrase. If you use the upper and down arrows to navigate through the instances of this term on the page, you will see this number go up and down.

    Can someone out there suggest a possible cause or same difficulty for am I at the end of my knowledge on this issue and my daughter is about to throw the thing out the window.

    Hello

    I think that the described issue could be related to a hardware problem, given that the laptop should not have problems running the Microsoft Office applications.

    In many cases, the s for laptop system could freeze due to a higher temperature.
    My girlfriend repeatedly asked for help because the laptop froze too.

    But the problem was linked to a higher temperature because cooling fans were clogged and cooling fans might not work correctly. She used the laptop sitting on the couch and there was not a lot of free space around the laptop to ensure good air circulation

    I want to say is that there are several reasons for such behavior annoying cell phone I think it would be wise to check the hardware first
    This should be done by the technician of the ASP.

  • This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. If you want to use this device, you will need to disable one of the other devices on this system (Code 12)

    Guys, I have a problem. So, my laptop has 2 graphics cards, an integrated course of the Intel HD graphics (which works perfectly) and the other being the dedicated Nvidia graphics (Nvidia GeForce 940 m). Until 2 days ago, everything was going well and running.

    I have the application experience GeForce and it prompted me that there is a new driver update should I download. He started to install then after rebooting to complete the installation, it failed. I checked my device manager and saw a yellow exclamation under under my Nvidia graphics card (remember, my laptop has two graphics cards: Nvidia graphics card and Intel HD graphics that works correctly). I immediately checked the details, and he said:

    "This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. (Code 12) »

    "If you want to use this device, you will need to disable one of the other devices on this system."

    This seemed very strange, because it was LITERALLY working properly before I was invited about update driver I got, so I don't know what to do - as a matter of fact, literally, I finished this game, Deadpool, with my Nvidia card that I put as the default graphics card, a few hours before , so I don't know why this happened. Any help? I'm looking for a logical answer to this, guys!

    Additional information:

    A few days before this happened, I went to my store local pc and installed an extra 4 gigs of ram on my 4 existing to make 8. Don't know if it's useful, but anyway

    If I pick up my laptop and shake it side by side, I hear a slight rattling noise, and it seems a little loose (I found this out after seeing the error message). The noise seems to come from just below the middle of my keyboard (I'm using a laptop). If for some reason, my Nvidia card is loose? Is this possible?

    I am quite technologically inclined, but not to the extent of removing components and reconstruction cell phones / pc and access the bios and what not. I can only remove/add ram.

    I want to know if its something I am able to fix it because I do not necessarily want to go running and sending my laptop places - only my pc up shop.

    Here is the location of my Nvidia card: PCI Slot 4 (PCI bus 4, device 0, function 0)

    My specs:

    Acer TravelMate p257-MG

    Windows 7 business

    Intel core i5-5200u 2.20 GHz 2.20 Ghz processor

    8.00 GB of ram

    64-bit operating system

    1 t hard drive

    940 m Intel HD graphics 5500 & Nvidia Geforce card

    Just to recap, I get the error on my Nvidia graphics card code, "this device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. (Code 12) ""If you want to use this device, you will need to disable one of the other devices on this system. »
