Dear Authors,

Your draft listed down several APIs. But which one is used by Applications that need low latency?

Aren't the "Socket Setup & Tear down" described in Section 3.1 the original Berkley sockets APIs? If not, what are the differences?

How about the "getsocketopt" and "Setsockopt"?  and the APIs listed in Section 3.3.?

Which APIs are used by Applications that need low Latency?

Are there any Applications today using the APIs proposed in draft-mcquistin-taps-low-latency-services?

Thank you very much,

Linda Dunbar
