The observed latencies are consistent with previous benchmarking of native LSL implementations [@kotheLabStreamingLayer2025] and demonstrate that this package preserves the real-time performance characteristics required for neurophysiological applications [@iwamaTwoCommonIssues2024]. The local processing latencies (65-274µs) are well below typical neurophysiological event timing requirements (<1ms), confirming suitability for EEG, electromyography (EMG), and other biosignal applications[^1]. The mean inter-device network latency (148µs) demonstrates that network overhead remains minimal on well-configured local networks[^2], though researchers should note that wireless networks and other factors including network traffic congestion may introduce additional jitter. The device-dependent variation (iPad: 65µs vs Pixel 7a: 274µs) reflects differences in CPU architecture, device network hardware and operating system scheduling rather than API limitations, indicating that platform selection should be validated through careful testing based on the requirements of the specific application.
