Really nice!!!
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.

Dante’s default latency compensation is 1ms: https://dev.audinate.com/GA/dante-controller/userguide/webhe...

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.

> Very low latency: 3.620 milliseconds round trip at 48 kHz with 64 sample buffer
"very low latency" in audio is <=1ms. 3.6ms is good but not special.

But it’s matching AND exceeding the performance of a $999 PCIe card designed for a similar purpose.
I would love to know why this is hand-wavy and not very cool? Even as not-audiophile, I’ve got ideas of things to use this for.

They quote a roundtrip of 3.6ms, so one-way 1.8ms. In the plots on their page, it looks like the processing latency is centered on around 1ms:
> The LATMON pulse width is therefore an accurate measure of the total processing latency of each cycle and is affected by every element in the data path: processing delay in the microcontroller, network transmission delay, host OS delays, signal processing delay in the DAW, etc
