We ran a fresh batch of tests, with the API as it currently stands. I was a little surprised. A 2 GHz span (roughly 2 ms of actual sweep time), took from start to finish (not queued), on average:
SM200B = 4.4 ms
SM200C = 4.8 ms
There were no significant peaks in the 1000-sweep test. From this, it looks like the SM200C has a bit higher latency across the board (something like 2.8 ms vs 2.4 ms).
Obviously these numbers will vary from computer to computer and sweep to sweep, and peak numbers will vary based on CPU load, but it’s a starting point.
