03/12/2020, 7:03 PMI’m running out of RAM before CPU as our users are heavy users of Chrome, so we’re only getting about 5-6 before it’s awful for anyone else

03/12/2020, 7:04 PMAgain, depends on the apps. Some web apps are very heavy, other users just leave tons of tabs open. Have you tried the great suspenders extension

03/12/2020, 7:25 PMad blocker or pi-hole is something that might help with browsers as well

03/12/2020, 7:27 PMVery true Rene, love pi hole

03/12/2020, 7:28 PMIn my experience with browsers WEM does okay but not great. They tend to have a lot of processes which means WEM is sometimes counterproductive. Also test though.

03/12/2020, 7:47 PMMax ~ 25 users with 6-8 vCPU, 32-48 GB and standard Office apps with Chrome or Edge. It the good old days with 2008 R2 and XA 6.5 we got easily 40 users and more.

03/12/2020, 8:48 PMAd-blocking and offloading/redirection all very good if you can do it (that article needs an update really)......we're way past the NT4 TSE days when you could cram thousands of users on each box, sadly

03/12/2020, 8:50 PMIt wasn’t that long ago you could get 30-40 users per box and now we’re struggling with 10

03/12/2020, 8:51 PMSlack, Teams, Chrome.......all of these modern apps seem very resource-intensive, along with Office365. I had eight tabs open recently in Chrome and 48 Chrome processes were active
James Rankin
03/12/2020, 8:52 PMActually I might fire up a Windows NT4 TSE with 32GB RAM and see how many desktops I can run on it
James Rankin
03/12/2020, 8:56 PMNot that it could probably even address 32GB RAM 🙂

03/12/2020, 9:06 PM8vcpu, 20GB of Ram. 2016. 15-18 max. I used great suspender and uBlock. Just goes back to what Leee said, Depends on the apps.
