Now most sites that use ajax also send 1kb-2kb data strings between server and back.

now don;t forget those ad banners that load 10 javascripts within each other

now notice how many small files we download daily?

and for regular downloads bit torrent benefits very well from latency mostly if they are in small block sizes.

But of course we always want faster latency and better connection...which is actually one benefit of 4G is it is not only faster but better latency over 3g.

Okay, I admit you got me there.

but CPU does have an effect on the latency, not by making it faster but "optimizes it"..aka in reality you may be receiving data at 100ms but due to the cpu being bottlenecked it only processes it at 200ms..get the point? its not that your making your connection any faster, your just making more use of what you already have.

pretty sure i already stated this, but not in such detail
