But latency matters

• Gravityloss 3y ago
  3000 km back and forth is 20 ms. The web software I've seen has multiple layers and parts with much larger latencies than that. Requests going through all kinds of layers that are geographically distributed, spammy responses, slow database queries etc. (Postgresql by default doesn't even log anything under 10 ms). Maybe for FPS games it doesn't make so much sense but for everything else...
