I agree, insufficient bandwidth is probably the culprit.

Nah, reverse sync being disabled seems unlikely here.

I think it's definitely the RTT being too high.

I feel like reverse synchronization being disabled could be a factor, but I can't recall the specifics on that.

I’m a bit confused about the recovery plans. Does having only one really impact the RPO like this?

I think we practiced a question where bandwidth issues caused similar problems, so D might be the right answer here.

I remember something about RTT affecting RPO, but I'm not sure if 5 ms is the threshold we need to worry about.
