One Windows 2008 R2 server has been giving very slow initial connection/screen draw over RDP. Can't see any network or local performance issues, so finally tried this:

Added an additional entry under

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters

DWORD, DisableTaskOffload. Set its value to 1.

So far looking much better - can login and get instant access now rather than waiting 2-3 minutes for the initial screen to draw.
