This is the design of ICA, there really is no question about that, the
display driver is a software driver and does not use the server video card
at all. If someone doesn't believe it, remove the server video card and show
how sessions still work!!

Subject: [THIN] Server graphics card
We are trying to boost the performance of a poorly performing app (Flex and
Flash-based) and the most recent request has been to install a better
graphics card in the server to assist in the rendering. Intuitively I know
that it is not the graphics card that is doing the rendering, but the
multi-win GDI. Can someone point me in the right direction regarding a KB or
white paper or some other source that definitively indicates that server
graphics card has little to do with the local client rendering? That would
be awesome, and yes I already know that Flex and Flash are bad ideas for
MetaFrame but despite the repeated warnings, the app was developed in them
anyway.
Thanks!
