Yup I did that and set the resolution to 640x480, music off, effects off.

I was able to launch 15 clients but the last two would not be
responsive after I set the options I could no longer click the OK
button. Viewing xrestop it show just 6K of memory being used by
gcompris


Thou my result are a little optimistic since no one is using the
clients they are just sitting there running gcompris and waiting for
input, I see tomorrow when I'll let the students use them and I'll
report back here.

Also I'm confused watching htop on the server it shows each client's
gcompris consuming about 30% cpu each without doing anything, multiply
that by 15 and that would be way beyond 100% which should be
impossible.

The main problem now is that gcompris is eating CPU time even when it
is not doing anything.
