I have setup linked servers between a few servers in our organization. I can execute distributed queries on the linked server but when i try to insert the results of the query into a local table, the query runs for an insane amount of time. What is it that you suggest i do?

How fast is your network?
Because when you execute distributed queries, they are performed at the target server only.

When executing a distributed query AND copying the result to you local machine, all data needs to be sent over the network.
