If the virtual application is to be delivered via the Web as a streaming application, you can choose to profile the virtual application in order to dramatically reduce the buffering time needed to launch the application. Novell recommends profiling any application greater than 10 MB in size. For more information on configuring applications for streaming, see Streaming Virtual Applications
in theNovell ZENworks Application Virtualization 10.1 Integration and Streaming Guide.
During the profiling process, you use the application as a typical user would, while Studio observes this behavior and stores it in a transcript. These transcripts are then subsequently used to construct a streaming model of the application. There is no limit to the number of transcripts that can be used to construct a streaming model. Novell recommends gathering at least one transcript from each of the six machine platforms identified in the Setting Up a Build Lab
section. The profiling process is covered in detail in Create Application Streaming Models
in the ZENworks Application Virtualization User Guide.
