I'd also like to point out that you should be careful with transactions that change large amounts of data OR are long running - if a query runs for 5...

Glad that wasn't a dumb question. I know with SSMS I've hit snags when my SSMS version doesn't match the SSIS version and it will happily push the dtsx to...

How many transactions are waiting to distribute and how fast is the distributer distributing them?
