Performance
Go to File – Settings – Performance to control the behavior of the application with respect to performance.
Performance
Hardware acceleration
Select in the drop-down list how Remote Desktop Manager will handle hardware acceleration:
Default (Automatic): Graphics rendering is completely left to the operating system.
Disabled (GDI+): Hardware acceleration is forced disabled.
DirectX: Hardware acceleration is forced enabled. The graphics rendering is performed by the graphics card. Performance is sped up in some cases, which is often required for high resolutions.
This setting does not need to be modified unless there are UI performance issues.
Optimize UI Performance
Optimize the user interface for better performances.
Session list refresh
Set the refresh delay for the opened connection tree.
Avalonia rendering
Enable AngleEgl rendering mode
Use ANGLE (Almost Native Graphics Layer Engine) with EGL to translate OpenGL ES API calls into hardware-supported APIs like Vulkan, Desktop GL, or Direct3D 9/11.
Enable direct composition mode
Use Windows DirectComposition for faster, hardware-accelerated UI rendering.
Enable redirection surface composition mode
Render offscreen first to prevent tearing and glitches.
Enable software rendering mode
Force UI rendering using the CPU instead of the GPU.
Enable WinUI composition mode
Leverage modern Windows UI features for smoother transitions and animations.
Other options
Show custom images
Enable the loading of custom images in the tree view. Note that too many custom images could dramatically increase the size of the workspace and load time.
Show favicon cache
Enable the favicon cache to store favicons locally, avoiding fetching them from the web on every load. Disabling this feature is not recommended for performance reasons.
Enable gravatars
Enable Gravatar images to display profile pictures associated with user accounts throughout the application.
Show user gravatar
Display the Gravatar profile image associated with the current user.
