So I am connecting to my work computer from home and the Remote Desktop Connection app is annoyingly slow.
I pinged my work pc from my computer and it returned at a reasonable time of 50ms~ with 0 loss. I then attempted to ping my home IP from the RDP session and it timed out every time. Not sure if this might help anyone come to a conclusion but hopefully it does. Note I am also using it in conjunction with Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client if that helps at all. Work is Windows 7 and Home is Windows 8
I attempted switching off my home pc's firewall but that did nothing.
Any assistance would be great, surely a setting in the RDP file might make it run a little smoother.
I'll edit this post with further attempts at fixes below

This is generally caused by a slow network connection on the client computer. Navigate to the Experience tab of the Remote Desktop client and choose a different option under Performance to reduce the bandwidth used by Remote Desktop.
Right-click DWMFRAMEINTERVAL, click Modify. Click Decimal, type 15 in the Value data box, and then click OK. This sets the maximum frame rate to 60 frames per second (FPS). This registry entry sets the maximum frame rate limit that the remote display protocol can deliver to the remote session client.
To resolve this problem, determine which application is using the same port as RDP. If the port assignment for that application cannot be changed, change the port assigned to RDP by changing the registry. After you change the registry, you must restart the Remote Desktop Services service.
Did three things and now RDP is running screaming fast:
Run the RDP session and connect to the remote machine
Find mstcsc.exe in the Task Manager and and set priority to Realtime

Our remote chain is Citrix then RDP, target machine is Win 10. I solved this issue by changing the mouse pointer scheme to None and disabling the pointer shadow.

I installed Ubuntu server XRDP. Went through Windows and terribly slowed down. I solved this problem. In the /etc/xrdp/xrdp.ini file, change crypt_level=high to crypt_level=None
