Also, 
 
When you say several hundred DPs....How many DPs does your primary site 
currently have?

Steven, Have you configured your Distribution Points as Pull Distribution 
Points? You might want to consider doing this, to help speed up content 
distribution. Are you on Configuration Manager 2012 R2? What do you mean the 
console shows rate limits as being set, but you haven’t configured any rate 
limits? What does your sending thread configuration look like on the Primary 
Site? Cheers,Trevor SullivanMicrosoft PowerShell MVP From:

Subject: [mssms] rate limit question All, We have been struggling with 
deploying packages in our environment.  We have a single primary site and 
several hundred DP’s.  The thing is that it seems like all my systems are 
taking forever to replicate even the smallest packages.  I have no rate limits 
set which would force single threading but when I look in the console the DP’s 
are showing that there is a rate limit set on every dp except the secondary 
sites.  Does anyone have any idea about this at all?  The performance seems 
much slower than our 2007 environment was.  Any thoughts? Steven
