Running Wyse V90LE thin clients, Windows XPembedded SP2 with Client 10.1. Accessing published applications via PNAgent on PS/XenApp 4.5 servers. When client connects, and as long as session is open, the CPU utilization on the the client is at 70% or higher. Causes local IE applications to really drag, especially if they use Java.
Saw an earlier Citrix article regarding re-directed COM ports, and how to edit the Module.ini, but I don't have the COM ports enabled, and the segments don't appear in the ini file.

Any Thoughts?

Well,
I found the resolution, no thanks to Wyse's crack team of technical support. Apparently the Smart Card service in Windows is set to automatically start up. Something with this service when authenticating and maintaining a session with the PS continues to run at 25% processsor utilization, and causes the wfica32.exe to run at over 60%. Disabling the Smart Card service in the Windows Management console seems to clean up the whole issue.
