I am very interested in what low latency mode is. It appears in the "Advanced Options" of the GRUB menu. Does anyone have any insight?

It boils down to how your CPU handles processes. If you are booting Linux on an older laptop with a 2 core CPU, I would boot low-latency.

Basically latency is the delay before data is moved based on the instructions on how the data is moved. So lower the latency, the quicker data is being Processed/sent/received.

  • Thanks for the advice. I will try to simply answer future questions, and not ramble on about stuff that has nothing to do with the question. – Static_Syn Sep 11 '17 at 20:00
