>> I just want to understand which benefits we get when implement what we're talking about. If major benefit is reduced latency of ring messages, then the assignment 'ARC ID' in accordance with latency value is quite enough. But if there are any hidden problems because of the large number of reconnection (like I described in first message in this discussion), then better to find a way to determine real physical location. >>
I suggest to solve ring building up and reducing number of reconnects separately. If we have AxB-C-D-A then A will try to reconnect to B, then to C, then to D. This is how discovery works now. I agree this should be fixed and I have couple ideas on how we can do it but let's separate these ones. >> Okey, then i think Vyacheslav's idea (using latency values) is quite enough when we can't determine real physical location. >> Can you please explain why this is better than arc approach? --Yakov
