I have no direct knowledge, but I suspect that the remote differential 
compression used by DFS would need to examine the entire file to determine 
changed blocks, and with a non-trivial UV file of a couple of hundred megs, I 
imagine that the overhead would be LARGE. However, if you were looking at this 
as a periodic update mechanism for a mirrored server (say, on a nightly basis), 
rather than attempting real time database replication changes, you might be in 
business :-)

All speculation on my part, and happy to defer to someone with firsthand 
knowledge, but if you could share an insight to the result you are trying to 
achieve, others may be able to provide a more accurate response.

Is anyone using Windows DFS Replication with UniVerse on Windows Server 2008?
