There is a theory that there is a delay to getting the packet on the wire and they recon 768k is where it peaks and after that you wont see a drop in latency ?
Yes, aware of that, but in practical terms you won't see significant differences there, at least on local servers.
Latency and Round trip time are not a function of how much bandwidth there is , however latency and other factors like packet loss do increases as the bandwith gets used....
latency is a function of distance primarly and upgrading the allocated bandwidth does not change the distance...changing the medium from copper to fibre however would.
so while you now puching more data across the link , the link itself should have similar levels of latency as before. you just able to push more data thru the pipe at the same time.
