Hello
We have the same problem and there is not solution at the moment. PL/SQL Developer is a great IDE but is not usable when you have 50ms or more latency with database.
For example, if you open a window to describe a table, the time calculation at best is: number of columns * latency, that is, if the latency is 600ms and the table has 100 fields, the load time will be 1 minute. With other IDEs the time is much less, therefore it is something clearly improvable.
This is very frustrating when many databases are currently deployed in the cloud and when you work with databases in another continent.
You have to search alternatives:
1.- Search another IDE. In our case it is something we are considering(I will not give names).
2.- Install Windows Server with RDP near database and install PL/SQL Developer in that server. That means buying terminal server licenses (approximately $ 150 per user) and renting a Windows Server in the cloud to install PL/SQL Developer (approximately $ 200 for each cloud every month)
