Very low fps

[ElYaiko]

Describe the bug
I'm using a self hosted rustdesk-server on my Mac with docker.
But when connecting to my remote desktop I barely get 20 fps (max) and an average of 14 fps.

Why it is slow? Even is being hosted on my own private network (LAN), I also have the custom image settings at max in the client, but is still slow.

Describe the environment

• Install environment: docker
• If available, the docker-compose.yaml file:

 version: '3'

networks:
  rustdesk-net:
    external: false

services:
  hbbs:
    container_name: hbbs
    ports:
      - 21115:21115
      - 21116:21116
      - 21116:21116/udp
      - 21118:21118
    image: rustdesk/rustdesk-server:latest
    command: hbbs
    volumes:
      - ./hbbs:/root
    # network_mode: "host"
    networks:
      - rustdesk-net
    depends_on:
      - hbbr
    restart: unless-stopped

  hbbr:
    container_name: hbbr
    ports:
      - 21117:21117
      - 21119:21119
    image: rustdesk/rustdesk-server:latest
    command: hbbr
    volumes:
      - ./hbbr:/root
    # network_mode: "host"
    networks:
      - rustdesk-net
    restart: unless-stopped

How to Reproduce the bug
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Given the previously described environment
2. Do this and that
3. I get this error

Expected behavior
I should get at least 40 fps > since is being ran LAN...

Additional context
Thanks!

It's not self-hosted, but I'm having the same issue. I enabled Direct IP on the host, so the connection is direct, but I only get from 4 to 10 fps

Edit: it's like if it doesn't refresh enough. After some time it seems to freeze, and I have to refresh it manually to see the updated screen.
More context: I have a virtual display adapter connected to my PC, and I'm using Rustdesk on my tablet as a secondary monitor by showing the virtual screen

Edit: use Anydesk, this software is garbage, just like the support it recieves

[adriadam10]

I'm having the same problem, in LAN, the connection is p2p and gives 30 fps. But outside LAN the connection is relayed and gives only 5 fps.
I tried to change to network_mode host, but it's still getting relayed

[paulsommer]

The same problem here: Self hostet; server and client on the same local network.
Another Problem: The upper right corner always overlays the gray box with the fps-info, and I don't know how to switch that off.

[NoteToSelfFindGoodNickname]

Same problem here:
Speed 0.0.1kb/S
FPS: 1
Self hostet, server and client on the same local network.

[derkrasseleo]

Same problem here: Speed 0.0.1kb/S FPS: 1 Self hostet, server and client on the same local network.

Same here only 1-5 fps and low bitrate on client with local network connection.

[adriadam10]

i had the same problem and i solved it checking the quality settings in the rustdesk client app

[derkrasseleo]

i had the same problem and i solved it checking the quality settings in the rustdesk client app

Can't confirm, I tried all codecs, which lead to slightly different framerates, but all below 5 fps. I also tried changing to "optimize for reaction time", also didn't work.

Privacy Mode will lower FPS. From 30fps to <5fps on my test.

[electricar]

I also have rustdesk self hosted on my Synology and have the same issue.
No matter what setting I choose, I get 14 fps on average (or even less).
Privacy mode is turned off.
Tried different settings.
When I enable h264 or h265 I get higher average fps (max was around 24fps sometimes), but as soon as I disconnect from the session and reconnect again, the delay shown on the quality monitor jumps up to 3-5s and is therefore unusable.

[Re-s]

me too

[sanwacompany]

me three

[londek]

i see, back to windows built-in remote desktop and for other use cases moonlight + sunshine + zerotier combo

[qyx268]

me four..

[eebssk1]

also local direct connection, I can get 20 real fps if i move window real fast. but no more than that.
Update: I'm using it in a vm,soft encode only.
@rustdesk Since you are already using ffmpeg. Do you have plans to add mjpeg encode support so that we can get more performance without hardware accelaration?

[cheesecakegangster]

same

[vlsalsa]

same, realized that ffmpeg was not installed, going to try that. Do you all have GPUs on your devices?
Edit: ffmpeg installed didn't change anything.

[JerryXiao2024]

me too

[Theletha]

same, i have 10gbit/s (up & down) connection on host and around 300/83 mbit/s on client side.

您好，我已经收到了您发给我的邮件，我会尽快处理。

I have found a solution, based on resources listed below I went from 1-5 fps to 20-30fps . It turns out you have to tweak mac default network settings. You have to input those everytime you reboot the machine. If you want to uderstand what these settings do follow the links below.

sudo sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.win_scale_factor=8
sudo sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.autorcvbufmax=33554432
sudo sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.autosndbufmax=33554432
sudo sysctl -w kern.ipc.maxsockbuf=4194304
sudo sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.delayed_ack=0

Superuser - slow rdp

Hopefully this is a good start, and we can go there to 30FPS+ with some more research

I have similar tuning on my linux server.But does not have much effect.

thanks! But my setup was accessing a windows virtualbox hosted in an ubuntu from my Android phone...

[saheljalal]

I'm a bit surprised as well. Seeing this highly recommended online as super fast and it's awesome that it can be self-hosted. However, in my local docker compose setup my mac machines feel very laggy. Native mac RD is much faster right now. Would be great to understand if it's some configuration issue or best practices around getting the best performance to boot.
