Cisco PIX - application network performance slow across vpn site to site tunnel

Hello All,

          I have a client that is experiencing a really wierd issue. The client is connecting two location over a site to site VPN tunnel. Both locations are using DSL with a average speed of 1.5 mbit / 768k bandiwidth. We preformed speed tests at both locations and they sites are getting great throughput. Problem is traffic going across the tunnel is really slow. The client has an application that times out when connecting over the tunnel. People reports that applications are really slow accessing rsources across the tunnel yet they have good throughput. Is their a reason why the traffic going over the tunnel is really slow when though their DSL speeds are blazing? My configurations are below.

   Nothing looks wrong. What are the time values of pings in miliseconds? May this application be copying/executing a file/module on the remote site from local site? Have seen people whose application is installed in x site and running the executable from y site by browsing the x site. This cause application to load to memory, which means the copying  5-6 MB< from remote site. Of course this takes some time and this time can be a timeout value for a software which is actually designed for LAN use.
