Yes on a local LAN it IS vast.. very fast.
But I found when working with friends to test remotely their response times were very slow.  No timeout errors from IE, but typical click-response cycle was 3-10 seconds.  No visible CPU spikes on my end.  and connections to my IIS webserver on the same machine gave normal sub-second response times back.

Ideas anyone?
Jon.
