Tips for boosting VDI performance

When using the Chrome Here are some recommendations to ensure optimum performance when using your Virtual desktops:

Hardware acceleration settings​

Adjust your hardware acceleration settings to boost Chrome performance and achieve faster page loading times. Hardware acceleration reduces CPU workload by offloading CPU-intensive tasks to idle hardware components like the GPU (graphic designer).

To do this:

  1. Type chrome://settings/system in the Chrome address bar
  2. Disable "Use graphics acceleration when available"

Configure tab management​

Chrome offers numerous performance controls to proactively detect and fix issues. One of these controls is the memory saver, which frees up resources for active tabs. To do this:

  1. Type chrome://settings/performance in the Chrome address bar
  2. Enable "Memory Saver," which suspends inactive tabs. This memory saver offers three savings levels, with the maximum level labeling tabs inactive after a shorter period.

Disable background processes​

Processes running in the background can slow processing speed and negatively impact the performance of your VDI browser. To disable this:

  1. Type chrome://settings/system in the address bar
  2. Disable "Continue running background apps when Google Chrome is closed"
