It's really fast - and it's free!
I enjoy using Dayon! because it's free, secure and respects my privacy! Since recent versions it also supports true colors!
Even though it's only grayscale, it comes with a .jar file you can share to anybody you want to assist without installing/sudo!
Dayon! is fast for remote desktop control, it's made for this purpose. But to achieve that, the dev chose to set all transmitted images in greyscale, so there's no color at all. I appreciate that you can choose the algorithm to compress images, although there's no video compression algorithm, so it's slower than softwares using the latter such as Parsec.
If you're looking for a fast open-source remote desktop software and you don't need colors, that's a very good choice, otherwise you'll have to look elsewhere.
