I built a latency meter with an Arduino and a photo transistor to answer one question: Is click-to-photon latency higher on Wayland than on X11?

And the answer is: Yes, actually.

42 ms on X11, compositing off
56 ms on X11, compositing on
64 ms on Wayland
71 ms on Windows 10

Tested with Plasma 6.3.4 and Firefox 137. I will improve my methods and confirm these numbers. See replies for details.

So I got the Anker K20I earbuds. They sound okay, but the latency is almost too much to deal with on Android. And of course, the only codecs they have for HD audio are SBC and AAC, cause Apple, gotta have that AAC. Game mode does nothing that I can tell. But they would be good earbuds for walking around listening to a book.

looking for suggestions for a budget friendly wireless earphone/earbuds. most important is the low latency mode. will be using it on my #Android device. thanks!

If you were setting up generic web site response #latency monitoring, what values would you use as thresholds between "green", "yellow", and "red" areas and why?

Over several months, I've been comparing the performance of my #VPN connection in single-hop mode vs. multi-hop (actually, dual-hop).

On really bad days, using a VPN in single-hop mode costs me about ¼ of #performance. In dual-hop mode, roughly ⅓. #Latency… well just don't ask.

I can live with that.

My internet #broadband #latency of 70 ms on the #ThinkPad #T480s running #nixos and using #firefox is seemingly pants. The #iPad pro has 8ms . What hardwear factors determine this number and is there an upgrade one can do the the ThinkPad hardwear or softwear ? Or is this number determined by the browser performance? Does the number matter? (I just don´t like it when #apple stuff is clearly vastly better .....) #thinkpadt480s
