Overview#

Latency is the delay from input into a system to desired outcome.

Network Latency #

Network Latency is an expression of how much time it takes for a packet of data to get from one designated point to another. In some environments (for example, AT&T), Latency is measured by sending a packet that is returned to the sender; the Round-Trip Time is considered the Latency.
