@jeffbarr latency 184ms - not sure whether this is typical! thanks for the blog post, Jeff #AWS #ec2 #cloudfront #s3 #stats #metrics

@sfoak depends. sattelite normally means ~1600 ping. It can be high-bandwidth, just real high latency too.

RT@carlosbrando A single sperm has 37.5MB of DNA data, thus a normal ejaculation represents a datatransfer of 1,587.5TB;latency sucks though

thinking about ways to reduce the latency w/ oauth. too many handshakes slow things down.

The Hobson's choice of Twitter. If it ain't the whale, it's the damn latency or the retweet feature MIA. My Twitter, love it or leave it ;-)

also on my mind. Speaker wires carry sound with basically 0 latency. Why can this not also be done over Ethernet or wifi damn it.

I rated a YouTube video (5 out of 5 stars) -- 7th Street Band & Binghi Ghost "No Latency" http://bit.ly/7K0ybZ

Did a backbone go down somewhere? I've got crazy latency on a variety of major sites.

@AdInfinitum Adobe Air was marketed as the hottest thing since sliced bread. But I end up with latency that's just no fun. Pretty sucky.

@cwichura speed tests are all over the map. 1mb, 2, 6. latency is just over 100ms, a lot better than 3g.

Another summary of recent work around site speed and product/revenue impact.

@dcbriccetti Never had a problems with latency, but haven't put it through heavy tests with overseas calls. Need to try that.

@TNSinc Satellite latency is apparent with services like ours, it has gotten better over the years though. Internet connections=performance

It's awfully slow with high latency, but free in-flight internet is a seriously nice touch. Thanks @VirginAmerica

#BrighthouseCable Fail. $70/month for internet and my latency is out of control. Can't stream anything or play any games.

@_naim occasionally3G latency is there but for casual Internet use at conference it's fine.Plus we got 4 computers hooked up to single line.

7ticks leveraged Correlix RaceTeam service to conduct in depth latency and performance analysis on its low-latency trading infrastructure

RT @szegedi Wow, Kirk's „War on Latency” #jaoo talk attracted a quite large audience.

Proof that speeding up websites improves online business
Do faster web pages mean better business? Definitely. We’ve seen hard evidence from major web operators like Shopzilla, Google, and Microsoft. But what about other websites? How big an impact does performance optimization have on the business metrics...

Still no WoW unless I want to play with 10+ second latency...

@CyberLogic You have high ping because you are wired on a mobile gprs module and it is perfectly natural to have high latency unless its 3G

RT @tarundua81: RT: @e2enetworks: launching dedicated servers and VPS in India with < 85 ms latency http://bit.ly/261i5m

Sweet Jesus ... 7% packet loss between transit hand-offs. 91ms latency between Sprint and NTT? Who broke the Internets just now?
