VNC enterprise eats a lot of bandwith.

I can't help you, but I can tell you that I use VNC EE 4.1.9 on the PC 
that streams live video from a capture card to my other machine over the 
internet. It works just fine. I am sure that I used 4.1.7 with the same 
result. Try upgrading first, then you probably need to characterize the 
problem more. Look at the CPU utilzation and network utilization by 
different programs. See what you can come up with.

VNC server does not appear to use any bandwidht until something is 
connected to it.

Regards,
Alex
