Yes. Ping-latencies with 512 VQ size show below.

Packet-Weight Ping-Latencies(millisecond)
min avg max
Origin 6.357 29.177 66.245
64 2.798 3.614 4.403
128 2.861 3.820 4.775
256 3.008 4.018 4.807
512 3.254 4.523 5.824
1024 3.079 5.335 7.747
2048 3.944 8.201 12.762
4096 4.158 11.057 19.985

We will submit again. Is there anything else?
