It depends on the application. Memory tends to be the defining factor for TS
sessions and on a machine of that spec I'd assign maybe 50 users, not 100.
Each user would have about 20MB for their session with 100 users and that
doesn't sound good.

I serve 250 users using a farm of 7 Dual p3/800 Citrix machines with 2GB
each.

Subject: [windows2000] Terminal Server Sizing


I have a colleague who is looking to implement a terminal server solution
to push out a custom database application, open office and email to 300
remote users.

He mentioned that his organization was looking at using three W2K3 servers
- dual xeon 2Ghz, 2 GB RAM as the terminal servers.  I told him that I was
skeptical that 3 servers would be able to handle the load of 300 users -
with good probability that atleast once a week all 300 users will be
simultaneously using the servers.

Any advice ... load calculations ... rules of thumb ... etc???

Thanks
Dave
