Slow File Transfer over VPN

What is the best way to increase the file transfer and network application (ex. Goldmine or Jobtrack) speed over a VPN?  We are currently using the Astaro 220 SSL VPN as our VPN.

What's the BW of your connection on either end of the VPN? Are all services slow over the VPN or is more specific to the app traffic?

What version of GoldMine are you using?, have you considered Remote Desktop instead then the VPN speed wont be as much of a factor as all the processing will be on the server.

Terminal Services or Citrix is the best choice
VPNs are generally slow partly because of the high security. I envisage better speed performances in the future as technology grows, but in the interim, I recommend looking at other alternatives if speed is critical
