Throughput of a network (Which i presume is what you are referring to as speed) depends on latency, the application (e.g TCP/IP window sizes) and bandwidth (Maximum packets one can send across a link under ideal conditions) The concepts form a lengthy explanation, but you cannot separate throughput and latency On Sat, May 5, 2012 at 10:38 PM, rsohan@gmail.com <rsohan@gmail.com> wrote:
Sohan, just to be sure that we are on the right page, here is the
