    Are there any drawbacks of having the distribution agent run every 4 hrs. instead of running continuously...log hold up etc?

    One possible consideration is the transactions would be held in the distribution database so the distribution database should support that.

    By default, all transactions are retained in the distribution database for (I think) 30 days. (30 or 14) to allow for disconnects, new subscribers.
