Hi Nate,
thanks for the reply.
Unfortunatley, the
Java app I'm working on is part of a existing product (developed in C++).
Currently, the gui application resides on a single machine, and users log into this machine and launch the guis(see diagram below).
Obviousy when there are 10/11 instances of our gui running, each with a JVM size of roughly 20MB, memory becomes an issue.
Another solution would be to launch all the guis within a single JVM, but I don't know how to display the guis on differnt machines, or even if it can be done.
Thanks,
Ian.
