Just a clarification:
Lessdisks is a framework for doing diskless stuff. It defaults to a
specific scenario (diskless X11 clients communicating over SDM), but can
~ be anything diskless - from headless Ogg/Vorbis streaming transmitters
to head-only info screens to "half-thick" silent multimedia development
machines to LTSP-like classical diskless clients using raw X11 traffic.
But yes, in its default setup, lessdisks use less bandwidth than LTSP
(but more CPU at both server and client end).
