Troubleshooting application slowness in WVD environment

Question

We have recently implemented a new application into our catalog and the performance of this specific application on RemoteDesktop is extremely bad. For example, once loaded into the application opening a specific screen (which is a new window) can cause the application to enter a "Not Responding" state.

Intuition thinks that it is slow when printing the results from the Session host into the RemoteDesktop app.

When installing the app directly onto a Windows 10 laptop the application performs fine.

I am trying to understand what lower-level investigation can be done to identify the root cause.

Some extra info:

• Session Hosts (8): Size - Standard D4s v3 , vCPUs - 4, RAM - 16GB, OS - Windows 10 Enterprise for Virtual Desktops.
• Session limit: 16
• There are other applications (some much more resource-intensive) that are running on the servers perfectly fine.

Answer 1

Hello,

Thank you for your question.

How is the application Installation size is this application too resource heavy ?

It can be slow if there is too much graphics which requires rendering and cashing on while displaying using RDP .

I would also like to suggest public small app like calculator or notepad and see how it works.
