Does LTSP actually work?Does LTSP actually work?Posted Oct 5, 2006 23:05 UTC (Thu) by hazelsct (guest, #3659)In reply to: Does LTSP actually work? by kbob Parent article: The future of the Linux Terminal Server Project (Linux.com)
On modern hardware (within the past 5 years), the load of 20 users running things like evolution and firefox is not hard to bear.
Yes, you do need more RAM, but nowhere near 20X. Keep in mind that your RAM calculation ignores overlap in application binaries, shared libraries, and memory caches of data files, icons, etc., each of which needs just one instance in memory to cover all twenty users.
