It seems like, at 16000TbaseT anyways, you’re adding an overhead of about 150% on top of copper/fiber latency plus transmit time latency to process data at that bandwidth. I wonder if the same holds true at 100 vs 1000, 2500, 10000? Certainly this is a known tradeoff for DDR performance tuning — if you don’t mind spiking response times greatly, you can get the advertised maximum speeds, else you accept less bandwidth for somewhat less latency — and they’re both effectively using the same strategies to talk over copper.
I wonder if gigabit would make a difference on latency, faster packet transmissions. Could packets drop from 64 to 32b?
4ms is pretty good but I feel like sub 2ms would be nicer.
