Thanks Josh, that helps quite a bit! Our sampling frequency is not particularly fast, it will only be around 5 MS/S. Right now the send and receive frame size are still the defaults, 1472 for receive and 1444 for send. In the notes, it says "to improve receive latency, configure the transport for a smaller frame size", will this work for send latency as well? Also is there an equation I can use to determine what the best frame sizes would be, or should I just go with trial and error and use latency_test.cpp to determine if it has shifted? If you change the frame size, how much improvement in latency do you usually see? Again, thank you so much. -Anisha
