Question 23

Scenario: A Citrix Engineer is managing an existing XenDesktop and Workspace Environment Management (WEM) infrastructure. The engineer performed recent benchmarks on all the user applications. As a result of this investigation, the engineer determined that some applications are consuming excess memory even when they are idle and NOT actively being utilized by users. This results in performance degradation of active applications.

Which step can the engineer take to help improve the performance degradation of active applications?

    Correct Answer: A

    To address the issue of applications consuming excess memory even when they are idle, enabling Working Set Optimization and setting an Idle State Limit is an appropriate step. The Idle State Limit determines the amount of time an application must remain idle before its excess memory is released. Setting this limit to a reasonable value, such as 10 minutes, helps free up memory from inactive applications, improving the performance of active applications. This effectively manages memory consumption by ensuring that idle applications do not retain excessive resources, thus reducing performance degradation.
