As a followup to last week's switch over to Linux SBN uplink machines and
latency issues for NOAAPort and NOAAPort dependent systems:
Time on Queue Statistics - Units are in seconds, for NCF.
-----------------------------
Channel Max Average
-----------------------------
GOESEast Queue 102 40
GOESWest Queue 12 4
NWSTG Queue 45 1
DCP Queue 49 1
-----------------------------
These are the "fastest" times (lowest latency) that I have seen on NOAAPort.
The massive improvement with a Linux solution should benefit us all . . . and
kudos should go to NOAA for having the foresight to implement a technically
and economically better SBN uplink facility. After last week's latency
issues - rooted on the old HP-RT systems and upstream facilities from the NCF
- this is a pleasant come-around.
