🌸 NAME 🌸

IPTFS_DEFAULT_DROP_TIME_USECS β€” the default drop time, no cap πŸ’–


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

IPTFS_DEFAULT_DROP_TIME_USECS

that's it. that's the whole synopsis. she's a constant, she's lowkey mysterious, she serves 🫢


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so bestie, this is the default IPTFS drop time, measured in microseconds ⏱️✨

and what even is a drop time? so glad you asked πŸ’… β€” it's the amount of time that passes before a missing out-of-order IPTFS tunnel packet is considered lost. like, the packet didn't show up to the group chat in time, so we're officially declaring it gone 😭

also, go peek at the reorder window, they're besties and they're both about this same whole vibe, iykyk πŸ‘‘

default: 1s β€” yeah, one whole second. give the packet a minute, she's on her way πŸšΆβ€β™€οΈ
