Enhancing Desktop Performance Enhances Network Performance: Fast servers and server connections are important for high network performance. However
server speed cannot overcome the drag of slow desktop performance. This is because when a desktop PC initiates a transaction with the network server
the server quickly performs its portion of the transaction
but must wait for the desktop PC to complete its part of the transaction. The slower the PC
the longer the server must wait for transaction completion before moving to the next transaction.
