Symptoms
Users are accessing RHEL 7 Desktop via Secure Global Desktop (SGD) HTML5 client. They find that the performance significantly declines after installing RHEL 7 April 2019 Patches. The login to the HTML5 Client is fine but when the RHEL Desktop is launched, any interaction with it e.g right click to bring up the right click menu, (create new folder, launch terminal window, etc). takes more time than before, or even typing in a terminal window is slow.
This issue has not been reported with the SGD Java Client or accessing the Desktop outside of SGD.
