I assumed you meant two monitors.....

Thanks. I'll check that link because the Help file has the color depth as
the very first part of that equation. That's how I came up with the number
2 (16bit / 8).

You need to make sure your color depth is in the equation.....
2
1024 x 768
16 bit color
3,145,728
Remember you need to set it for the highest resolution machine that you use.
I haven't seen it cause any performance issues by giving it to much memory.
(especially modern hardware) I believe it will only use the amount it needs
to rather then allocate the full amount...I have it seen it cause more
problems when resolution or color depth is degraded. Users don't like that
much.

I'd really like to understand more about this in case it has any affect on
performance.
From the Help Screen in the CMC (we run MFXP) it gives the following
formula:
(color depth in bits per pixel / 8) * vertical resolution in pixels *
horizontal resolution in pixels = memory required in bytes.
Our users generally use, at the high end, 16bit color depth @ 1024x768
resolution. So that would be (2) * 768 * 1024 = 1,572,864 bytes required
for graphics. The default looks to be 5625 for this setting, which is much
larger than we appear to need.
Why would you (I) need to increase that? Would it give me better video
performance or just allow for huge graphics reolutions or multiple monitors?
Would reducing this number give more memory back to the OS?

Where do you set this? In the CMC or the ICA file?

The maximum value is 8192. That's usually what I set it to.

I am thinking that I need to bump up the graphics memory for user
sessions.
I am using the default setting for the farm of 5625 kilobytes. What are
other people using for this?
This is a XP farm.
