. Horus-l@cornell, . Edu, and . Subject, Re: Wrong view changes Tim, Years go by and we are not able to become very aggresive in using timeout values. This is a shame. *Average* message latency numbers are now very low. Attached chart shows round trip message latecies when using VIA (non-IP protocol) under Linux. At low end average message latencies are 50 usec (round trip) or about 20,000 messages per second. Since these have UDP like semantics we put in a simple 10 msec timeout for retransmissions
