Hi, does anyone have any tips as to how a local Umbraco install to a remote database can be sped up ? Connections via SQL Management studio to the remote server are fine, but from local IIS (using same connection details, same packet sizes etc) are very sluggish.
We had a client use a remote MySQL instance (at Amazon EC2) and didn't notice any significant latency for DB-specific actions. I'd expect MS SQL to perform as good or better. The likely suspect is a firewall or routing issue, IMO.
Can you do a trace to see if you're dropping connections that have to be re-established?
Thanks for the suggestion. I'm using SQL Express so don't have the profiler tool, but have used wireshark to have a quick look at the traffic - lots of "Reassembled PDU"... and then lots of TDS query / response packets. Not sure what to try next !
Remote Database Speed

Does anyone else develop against a remote db ?
