TCP server is slow
Posted: Thu Oct 24, 2019 5:55 am
Hello, i am new in freertos and esp32.
I am working on the fastest speed with transmission packet over tcp socket,
I have TCP server on esp32, and from laptop ( both device connected to router) i send with netcat a bytes.
Program is one's from example esp-idf esp32 received fata and send back.
I am using wireshark to measure the time sending two bytes from laptop to esp and from esp to laptop.
Time is very big and because it takes ~150 ms and it is not constant for every time.
I set RTOS CLOCK to 1000HZ.
Do you have any idea how to speed up this transmission
