Dear Pankaj
I aggree with your first remark below, but the
second one cannot be serious with respect to voice communications and
long data packets.
Best regards, Harmen
A need for preemption due to
jitter/latency fears is unfounded. I don't know
of any application where a few microseconds (even a few tens of microseconds) will make a huge difference. Should there be networks where this does become a big issue, routers can always negotiate a smaller MTU. And, at lower rates everything runs
at a lower rate (including
high-priority traffic) so there should not be an extra concern for latency. ------------------------------------------------------------------
