We have a VPN connection to our Windows Server 2008 R2 machine, and the connection works fine. Large files go back and forth fairly quickly, but we use the connection mainly for working on small text files (.aspx, .asp, .php etc).

What we find very annoying is that even the smallest of files, there is a noticeable delay of between 2-5 seconds when saving any changes. As we often make changes to code and are constantly saving, this is becoming a problem.

Is there anything that might be causing this delay? Or is there anything we can do to speed it up?

The connection is definitely not the issue as we have a constant 5Mb upload from our server, and 20Mb+ down on the remote machines.

Thanks,

Chris.
