This is just a RAW ping, I don't know if that tells you anything...but on my tests, without any compression I get a 60ms steady ping. With compression I get a 40ms to 50ms ping. Stac-9 and MS-Stac perform the best. I'm just curious if there is anything else I can enable or turn off to improve my latency. But so far, the ping improves with compression. -----Original Message----- From: owner-ascend-users at celestial.com [mailto:owner-ascend-users at celestial.com] On Behalf Of Jaye Mathisen Sent: Tuesday, June 12, 2001 8:05 PM To: Chris Cook Cc: Randy Snow; ascend-users at bungi.com Subject: Re: (ASCEND) Improving Latency between a Pipeline 75 & 50 Do you have any data to back this up? It has been my experience that any compression increases latence, with the exception of VJ, only because of the need to wait for enough data for compression to be effective, or in the case of truly binary/random data, the expansion of the data.
