The following table shows the recommended user densities that were achieved during the performance testing on PowerEdge Servers. The Dell VDI solutions team followed the VMware datastore best practices of reserving 15% to 20% of slack space on the datastores. The team also used Microsoft Windows 10, 64-bit, and Microsoft 365 with Office Apps to test Login Enterprise Knowledge Worker. We implemented all mitigations to update the Spectre, Meltdown, and L1TF vulnerabilities at the hardware, firmware, and software levels to ensure an improved performance impact, which is reflected in the achieved user densities.
Server configuration | Workload | Windows version | User density |
Density Optimized | Login Enterprise Knowledge Worker | Windows 10, 22h2 | 243 |
