For this research, the expected result is a slightly higher load using 圆4. When testing scenarios like these there is always an expectation of the outcome. Our default testing methodology is applied which is described here. The desktops are running in a stateless scenario, so all changes within the desktop are discarded before the next test. The desktop delivery solution is Citrix Virtual Apps & Desktops running version 1808.2. This has nothing to do with Microsoft Office but with the benchmarking tool used in GO-EUC named Login VSI.īoth test scenarios have been tested on Windconfigured with 2vCPU and 4GB memory.
