Hi,
I tried ping as a minimal latency test, e. g.
ionice -c3 -p $$
renice +19 -p $$
ping -q -s 28 -l 1 -p 0f1e2d3c4b5a6978 -i 0.001 localhost
but when cyclictest shows a worst-case latency of 40 mikroseconds,
ping shows more than 10,000 (after 1 day run).
I tried different kernels, e. g.
SMP PREEMPT RT Debian 4.6.4-1~bpo8+1 (2016-08-11) x86_64
but with the same result, low cyclictest values, high ping values.
What is the reason?
That's a great question, I'm curious what responses you get.
It might be useful to use a custom ping client (or remove the -q option and
parse the output) so you could track the latencies and generate a histogram to
see if that 10ms latency was a single outlier or whether it happened fairly
frequently.
