For Every client that request FrameBufferUpdate we send all the clients the
Result. Yes, I know it's not the best way, but on our platform we assume
that all the clients have the same connection type/quality.
I guess that when working with diff types of connection Tx/DSL/ISDN/MODEM
the proxy will have to be A LOT smarter.
We try to imp the 2nd idea that you suggest, and yes, it's hard and the sync
is quite painful and result bad viewer FPS.

So how do you handle requests for frame buffer updates?
Do all clients connected to the proxy get their updates without doing
requests of their own (maybe the proxy just drops these)? If so, have
you taken possible congestion problems with this into account  (maybe by
letting the proxy handle these requests, without forwarding them to the
server?)
Or are all connected clients doing their own requests for frame buffer
updates, and are these all tunneled in the 1 connection form the proxy
to the server? (Well, that would seem a bit compilicated.)

Just curious.
