I was not aware that jim salter had really gone to town on measuring
latency under load in the past year - notably the 4 stream 1024p + web
browsing torture test used here:

https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2019/11/ars-puts-googles-new-nest-wi-fi-to-=
the-test/?itm_source=3Dparsely-api
https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2019/12/amazons-inexpensive-eero-mesh-wi-fi=
-kit-is-shockingly-good/?comments=3D1

He considers under 500ms of browsing latency to be "good". Not
entirely sure how he's calculating that, I think he's measuring page
completion time rather than "latency" per se'.

The tools he uses are here:
