The speed of uplink from server to network is GB. The problem is not

Jean-Francois CLEMENT;

do you have every users members of group "fuse" in /etc/group ?

yes every user is a member of fuse group

Richard Doyle;

Sounds like the bug in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ltsp/+bug/160420
and related reports. According to Oliver the fix is in Hardy, and can be
applied to Gutsy by commenting out the following line
in /usr/sbin/ltspfsmounter on the server:

env['DISPLAY'] = 'localhost:10.0'

The comment you have mentioned is already there;

Thanks for all
