Windows Terminal Server Pre-Installation Considerations

As previously noted there are several items a user on the client side of Terminal Server can do to help performance. Conversely, there are also several items that can be done at the time the server is setup. This section focuses on optimizations suggestions for the server. Consider the following optimization suggestions before building a Terminal Server that will host Aptify:

• Create efficient background tasks that are not resource intensive.
• Configure and balance threads on the server for multi-users.
• Minimize splash screen usage.
• Minimize the use of animation.
• Minimize direct video access.
• Minimize the use of backgrounds (wallpapers).
• Install applications assuming access by multiple users.
• Enable policies to terminate disconnected and idle sessions.
