Disclosed are various embodiments to determine network transit time for a packet. A request packet for determining a network transit time is received. A reply packet is transmitted to the requester in response to the request packet. A reply packet is transmitted to the requester. The reply packet includes information about a packet processing time. This packet processing time includes a time between the receiving of the request packet and the transmitting of the reply packet.

Measuring network transit time

Disclosed are various embodiments for reducing input processing latency for remotely executed applications. An application is executed in a hosted environment, and a video signal generated by the application is encoded into a media stream. The media stream is sent to a client by way of a network. User input data for the application is obtained from the client computing device by way of the network. The user input data is processed server side, rather than client side, at a latency-compensating processing rate.

Reducing input processing latency for remotely executed applications

Disclosed are various embodiments for reducing input processing latency for remotely executed applications. An application is executed in a hosted environment, and a video signal generated by the application is encoded into a media stream. The media stream is sent to a client by way of a network. Unprocessed user input data for the application is obtained from the client computing device by way of the network. The unprocessed user input data is processed at a first processing rate that is above a second processing rate associated with a normal processing of the unprocessed user input data in the client.
