22	ntripcaster streaming latency bug	edanastasio		"Dear BKG staff,
we are running BKG Ntripcaster v 2.0.21, and monitoring RTCM3 streaming latencies with BNC Client 2.10 (log latency set to every 5 minutes).

We probably found a bug (or something we could not explain) in one of the modules of the BKG Ntripcaster software. 

The module src/source.c has a variable named READ_RETRY_DELAY  

The value for this is set to 400.
Leaving this value, we observe an unexpected high latencies on all of our data streams.
If we change the variable to a lower value (we are currently using READ_RETRY_DELAY value of 50), latencies measured by BNC Client decrease systematically by about 0.5 seconds.

The figure attached shows an example for AUCK_RTCM streaming.
Red values are the one with READ_RETRY_DELAY set as default (400), whereas green values has this value set to 50.
Any comments/suggestions from you would be really appreciated!

Thanks,
