What do you consider a low-latency network? In milliseconds which of the
following: >1ms, 4ms, 8ms, 12ms, 20ms would be low-latency?

Maybe you could do a couple of pings on your own networks that you think
have acceptable latency, and actually gather empirical data?

My own observations are that networks approx. 1-2 ms roundtrip time are
great, but a network with a consistent roundtrip time of 8ms is inadequate.
But perhaps bandwidth is playing a role as well in the 8ms network I do not
know.

Thank you,

Subject: Re: [Ltsp-discuss] LSTP over wireless

Hello,

I'm not sure if the bandwidth will be the bottleneck. I would rather say 
it would be the RTTs (round-trip-time). The 801.11 (WLANs) has RTTs, 
that are a magnitude bigger than 802.3 (Ethernets).
Maybe try to run an common applications over 'ssh-x-forwarding' and get 
sure that Your network can offer low-latency connections.

Greetings,

Wojtek
