AAD Application Proxy + RDS HTML5 Web Client = significant lag

Question

It seems like the combination of AAD App Proxy and the RDS HTML5 web client is not the most ideal combination. We are using this for a POC to provide remote access. But it seems these two are not very optimized for each other even though it's a supported solution. The setup is straightforward: Single server Windows Server 2022 RDS setup where ALL RDS roles are installed on a single server AAD Proxy agent is installed on the same RDS server (and region in AAD config is closest to physical region of server) Specs: 12 cores, 30gb ram (the system is really overpowered) Internet speed: 380Mbps/240Mbps, 4-10ms latency Have tried multiple things already:

• Adding AAD App proxy service to A/V exclusion
• Bypassing any TLS inspection
• Optimizing performance and power features
• Tuning network adapter settings

Sadly non of this really helps. Other browser based solutions seem to perform much better. I assume this is because they inherently also use UDP in their backend opposed to TCP. I hope the Windows and AAD team can improve this because this solution can offer a lot of possibilities for securing remote access for small environments that can't afford big budget third party solutions.
