We have Riverbeds in all our offices. We did our benchmarking well over a year, and it was definitely worth the expense. We just recently added the Steelheads (Riverbed) Mobile Software to our laptop users. I went from Save To Central times in excess of an hour down to 10 minutes connecting from a hotel with VPN. I have had the Steelhead Mobile for maybe 3 months and I now wouldn't work without it.

There are various WAFS and caching appliance and software-based solutions which work very well for other applications as well, for example Steelhead from Riverbed, the Tacit Networks appliance, and Availl software. While work sharing, Revit is constantly checking to make sure items are not being edited by others, and locking items when you edit them. If the network is slow, Revit will be slow.
