System ID Private Priority Status Summary Last Updated
FreeDesktop.org 96598 0 'medium' 'RESOLVED' 'QOS - Avoid using the whole bandwidth in one channel' 2019-11-21 22:28:29 UTC

Description Victor Toso 2016-11-22 17:31:32 UTC
Description of problem:
A few spice channels like channel-usbredir and channel-webdav (upstream only) might use all bandwidth available to the client machine. This will cause the client to appear to be hanging.

Some Quality of Service is necessary to ensure that all channels can have enough bandwidth to keep the user experience good.

Upstream client hanging on Shared folders:

RHEV client (3.6.2) hanging with usbredir over UsbDk:

Comment 1 Victor Toso 2017-05-30 10:18:19 UTC
A client side solution was proposed [0] but it was recommended to investigate a server side solution [1].

More time for investigation and testing will be necessary.
Moving to 7.5

A lot was going on on server side this cycle and this was not priority.

Switching component to spice-server and moving bug to 7.6.

RFE is moving to rhel 8, where it will be triaged and prioritized
