Perceptive Content components use packet delivery on the TCP/IP network. A packet is the unit of data that a network routes between an origin and a destination on the network. For example, when Perceptive Content Server sends information to the Perceptive Content Client, the TCP layer divides the file into chunks of an efficient size for routing.
You can configure the actual size of the packets using your network software. For example, you can change the packet size to the maximum size for your network. The network fills up the packet with data before sending it. The bigger the packet, generally, the more efficient the data transfer.
