Latency is greater than 1 hour, if it takes an hour to copy the data to the tapes. You've got to get them to the destination and copy them off after that.

- redthrowaway 16y ago>If it takes an hour to copy a terabyte of data to a tape, put it in a car, drive to a location and read the tape That's 1 hr latency, unless I'm mistaken. Latency doesn't include disk operations on the client side, does it? Is latency time between a signal being sent and received, or between sent, received, and acknowledgement sent/received? ie, is latency time(client->SYN->server->SYNACK->client->ACK->server), or time(client->SYN->server)?
