Setting the Reservation Latency
By default, the maximum latency for a reserved flow packet is
50 milliseconds (ms), limiting the amount of unreserved data that the link
scheduler can transmit. When the data transmit ring reaches a size where the time
to transmit the data is greater than the value of this parameter, no more unreserved
data will be queued.
You can set the reservation latency from 0 to 214748364 ms. Reduce the value of
this parameter to obtain better delay characteristics for reserved flows, but note
that overall throughput may decrease. Increase the default value to improve
throughput, but note that reserved-flow delays may increase.
