Mickael Istria commented on JBIDE-10974:
----------------------------------------
Xvfb is working fine.
However, it is difficult to get conclusions on how much time to we gain/loose since builds do not happen on same slaves:

> Xvfb is a minimalist in-memory X server, without VNC. For our use-case, Xvfb may be faster and may avoid some of the issues we have with Xvnc.
> A Jenkins plugin exists to use Xvfb in Jenkins: https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Xvfb+Plugin
> It requires Xvfb to be install in the slaves we use of IC, and the plugin installed on Jenkins.
