[Video] ThinLinc Performance with VirtualGL on Zorin OS + NVIDIA RTX 4060

Hi @ngaywood,

Welcome to the forum

@ngaywood

If I’m understanding correctly, the “NVIDIA RTX 4060” hardware is located on the “ThinLinc Remote Desktop Server”. So we are not using your own workstation GPU?

Yes, that’s right.

@ngaywood

If that’s correct, how well does this work in a multi user environment? Say there are 50 users logged in?

How well it works will depend on a number of things, such as the type of GPU, what it’s being used for, and so on. It is possible to share a GPU among multiple users in ThinLinc, however 50 users would probably require very substantial GPU resources.

Remote acceleration is achieved using a third-party piece of software called VirtualGL. We have an article which explains how this can be used with ThinLinc here:

Is it possible to provide server-side graphic acceleration via ThinLinc?

Hope that helps!
