I've been working with Mirage quite a bit over the past few months and I wanted to share a little tweak that can help speed up Centralization and other network intensive processes.
Disclaimer: As stated in the title of this post, this is great for Test environments. I wouldn't however recommend you configure this on your production environment unless you fully understand the impact of the changes.
Disabling Bandwidth Throttling
By default Mirage enables bandwidth throttling. This can reduce the through-put between your desktops and your Mirage Servers to ensure you don't saturate you WAN connections. However during Testing there is a good chance that all of your desktops are on the same LAN as the Mirage Servers. In which case you may not care if you use all of the bandwidth available, especially if it is going to mean less waiting around.
To disable bandwidth throttling, the following steps need to be made on all desktops.
You should now notice an increase in performance.

Just a remark for 4.3. Open MMC for Horizon, it's under system configuration, CVD policies, advanced options, disable client throttling. It seems faster now :)
Thank you very much for the tip sir,
I am trying Mirage 5.9.1 and I can't find "ThrottleEnable" but instead There are "ThrottleRestoreOperations" and "ThrottleIoPriorities" and the default values are "false"
I am not sure it is still possible to do the tip with Mirage agent 5.9.1?
Thank you very much again
