Massive latency with xrdp over LAN












0















I recently setup a VM running Ubuntu 18.10 and installed xrdp so that I can connect to it from my Windows machine running on the same network. I am connecting using the built-in Windows RDP client and I am experiencing what feels like a second or so latency and an awful frame rate. I have tested the connection speed between the two machines using iperf and received this result:



------------------------------------------------------------
Server listening on TCP port 5001
TCP window size: 85.3 KByte (default)
------------------------------------------------------------
[ 4] local 10.172.214.165 port 5001 connected with 10.172.152.25 port 49993
[ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth
[ 4] 0.0-10.0 sec 895 MBytes 750 Mbits/sec
[ 4] local 10.172.214.165 port 5001 connected with 10.172.152.25 port 50037
[ 4] 0.0-10.0 sec 748 MBytes 627 Mbits/sec
[ 4] local 10.172.214.165 port 5001 connected with 10.172.152.25 port 50050
[ 4] 0.0-10.0 sec 910 MBytes 763 Mbits/sec


So I am fairly confident the network is not the issue. I also connect to a Windows box on the same hypervisor with no issues.



I have tried using a lower colour depth but this has not had any noticeable impact on performance and I am at a loss for what could still be causing this issue
