Hi all,

We are doing some research based on ptp4l and I noticed that it doesn’t perform 
delay estimation and offset estimation on the same cycle. That is, the client 
updates only the estimated delay when it receives a DELAY_RESP and then updates 
the offset estimation (and corrects the clock) when receiving next cycle’s SYNC 
message. Is there a specific reasoning behind this implementation decision?

I actually tried my hand at changing the code locally so it does everything on 
the same cycle (both delay and offset estimation when receiving a DELAY_RESP) 
and, although it works, performance is noticeably worse than the base ptp4l 
implementation. This is the issue I’m trying to figure out.

Best regards,
Víctor
