Decisions about parameterization at this early stage are generic and conservative because the only information available is the statement itself.

Latency can be roughly defined as the time it takes to send a packet from point A (say, the client) to point B (the server). This is one of the main reasons why content delivery networks (CDNs) exist: They place servers physically closer to the end user in order to reduce latency, and thus delay, as much as possible.
