[Ubuntu Chicago] Up For Grabs

[Robert Stolorz]

I've set up a lab of 20 thin clients and they worked well over a simple 
gigabit switch.

It's pretty simple to determine where the bottleneck is.

If you see any latency between the mouse and objects on the screen or 
graphical artifacts it's probably in the network.

However, if you see issues like slow load times for large programs like 
Word or IE. Then your server isn't fast enough. Normally this is the 
most common issue where the server doesn't have fast enough drives or 
they aren't RAIDed.

On a side note:
Does anybody have any interest in the hardware? Please let me know. If 
not I'll end up putting it on e-bay but would prefer to get rid of it 
locally.
