Revit files get huge. All data is kept in one file - that's all data f the entire project, so the files regularly go over 100mb. The collaborative features (e.g. look up "Save To Central") transfer the entire file to or from the server.

It's so slow I'm advocating upgrading our office to gigabit. Doing it over WAN would suck more than I care to contemplate.
