Hi All,

Is it normal thing for Sync messages to have more latency time than async messages in PI. if yes then what is the reason behind it?

Also whats the appropriate latency time in PI?

Hi XIer,

synchronous message sender need to wait for a response. They cant wait for an eternity, so there must be a timeout, usually 3 minutes or something.

asynchronous message sender do not care (techniquely) about any reaction, the program can go on after sending. Therefore any timeout makes no sense.
