jpeg or 8-bit faster

[David Brodbeck]

I agree with what I think you're saying, but it would add a lot of
complexity.  Right now one of the major benefits of VNC is that it's
*small*. ;)

As end users, we are likely to assume characteristics and forget to allow
for other dominating factors;
with 20/20 hindsight, we could speculate about some useful automated support
for this.
In time, perhaps self-optimised with adaptive mechanisms - (sledgehammers
and walnuts ? )
and good old AI stuff like suggestions along the lines of:
 "choosing to NOT refresh y would gain  you 27% more useful bandwidth"

e.g. meters/metrics showing the extent to which vnc traffic is held back by
other traffic,
     running tests with some defined characteristics of
image/overlaps/backgrounds
     as either stated by user or from internal metrics
     based upon samples of data that have been compressed in a specific
session.

...remembering that different shared clients would have different
requirements for "best" performance.

Not as much fun as letting everyone think they have tuned their vnc to
perfection though.
