I am not sure what you are calling "algorithmic delay".  Generally it is the
delay inherent to the algorithm (the delay you would get if you had an
infinitely fast processor).


Total algorithmic delay for G.711 should be no more than .125 ms, total
algorithmic delay for G.729 is 20 ms (15 ms per frame and 5 ms look-ahead).
