What bandwidth are you using? Are you on a Lan or remote?
If you're remote then it don't surprise me that a 2MB graphic takes a
while - Terminal Services is not a great solution for graphics-type
tasks.
With IE6, you might check where you've directed the Cache - if you've
just pointed Local Settings to a netwrok share, that might cause
problems. Again, though, if you're downloading big graphics it will be
slow.
I have had one user complain about internet access speeds. While
investigating I looked in his cache and discovered some very large
graphics files of not entirely clothed females. I merely mentioned that
"Large graphics files may not work as well over TS as on a local
machine".:)

Subject: [THIN] Windows 2003 Terminal Server performance tips for IE?
Hi
I have a 2003 WTS I need to fine tune. Server runs std office apps -
Office 2000, Project 2000, Visio 2000, Access 2000 etc. All these apps
seem to run at respectable speeds. I have disabled all animation,
removed actors etc and also looked at some of the documentation on Brian
Maddens site and implemented accordingly.
My issue is mainly with IE6 performance. It runs really slow via
Terminal Server (runs fine on the LAN outside of TS). Also have speed
issues when viewing JPG files. Takes quite a while to load a 2Mb Jpg in
Photo Editor or the Picture Viewer. I am the only person using the
server at this stage and the server is specced as follows:
CPU 3Ghz x 2
RAM 2Gb
Raid 1 disk config
The images load but very slowly - u can see the bar slowly scroll across
the screen (I was expecting much better performance). Im running the
latest MSTC client.
IS there anything obvious I can do to improve IE and JPG loading
performance? Any GPO I can set?
Thanks
Rose
