We setup lab scenarios of replicating databases in different locations,
subnets, Master in Dallas, Slave in Chicago, Atlanta.

Now that you mentioned that, I do recall a situation whereby high latency
between sites could cause replication to be slow, the slaves could fall
behind, and with a network connectivity issue data replication could fail.

Thanks for the feedback.
