What the HELL are you talking about?
First of all, it's just as much an issue of bandwidth as it is the speed. Just cause my laptop is connected to my desktop via a ft of cable, doesn't mean that data arrives instantly. Processing cycles are still required to parse the arriving information and the speed of our processors is growing at staggering rates.
As for the "speed" issue, if the speed of the signal is what you are talking about then you OBVIOUSLY haven't done the math.
Light travels at 300,000,000 m/s through a vacuum - that's 300,000 km / second. If a server is located 3,000 km (about 1800 miles) away from your house, you'd have a base latency of 2ms. Any other latency would be due to bandwidth and processing speeds which are, once again, improving fast. If you can play games at 6ms latency, that would be barely noticeable. |
