Sharing and checking the "keep history' setting can cause the files to grow in size, which could cause the issue.

There is a 20ms ping time between the workstations and the server. This is pretty constant. The file server contains a lot of Excel files. Different versions, some with macros some without. Some files are quite old, some are newer. Opening some of these files over the WAN link can take upwards of a minute for a 1MB file. Other similarly sized files will open in 6 seconds. At this point I'm looking for a few thoughts on where I can start my investigations.
