Okay, I figured out the main issue for the 1500 mile distance is the limitation due to EM fields traveling at a maximum the speed of light. The time to take the first bit of a packet is around 80msec. Thus if you have a request plus the response then 160 milliseconds is used up. If you have several routers involved that may put you up to 300 milliseconds. Thus to go from coast to coast a couple of tenths of a second will be used for dynamic data.
Just a FYI.
