I am trying to determine which option would give me better performance
for my branch office users; cached mode or running RPC over HTTP? Our
branch offices connect to our central data center (which houses our
Exchange servers) via a T1 line at a minimum. We would like to bring
our branch office mailboxes back here, but our users like to see the
email instantly appear in the mailbox (as opposed to cached mode where
they may have to wait a few secs for it to download the new message).
Does RPC over HTTP offer better performance then a standard RPC over
TCP/IP connection?

Thanks

RPC over HTTPS is more secure and more bandwidth efficient. However, a T1 is
a lot of bandwidth and depending on user count and WAN utilization either
may work. Cached mode should be used in either scenario as it will your life
easier and the users will appreciate the transparency and adapt after a
while.

Nue.

If they are connected via. a WAN I would use Cached Mode as it is intended
for this purpose.

If they are connected just via. the internet I would use RPC/HTTP(S) because
its secure and users can access the accounts from anywhere (assuming they
have Internet connectivity).
