First of all, sorry for my english... What type of VPN are you using? Your VPN have a compress option? In Openvpn you can enable the LZO compression if your VPN Gateways have a decent processor, it could help.

If this is a Samba problem, I'm sure that I will encouter this problem in my local LAN too! But if anyone knows the ways to improve the situation, I will be glad to hear. =) Currently everyone agree the problem is latency, as another user in the list suggest that we should have temp. file on local, not on the share, but I cannot figure out the way to do that!
