I have a replication with pull subscription. over the wan.
At times it is ok (Not briliant) but sometimes it gets realy slow.
For example today, we reached 2 commands per minute!!!!
at the same time we expirianced this, I copied from the same location a 13MB file and got 120-170kb/sec speed.
So I believe the IT guy saying the line is fine. I checked for locks - none. The waits are on network and they are short ones( a few seconds at the most).
The trace shows nothing during the wait (only at the end everything gushes through)
here is the agent log:
