Comment on Unity to acquire Parsec for $320Mparent

Comments

FEC in basic form works like raid 5. M parity packets for every N data packets, allowing loss recovery of up to M of the M+N packets without round trip back to host.

You can dynamically tune M and N based on measured loss rates and RTT.
