    Hence, the water leaked is (N – 1) × T – τ, which because the leak is one unit per second, took exactly (N – 1) × T – τ seconds to leak. Thus the shortest time in which all N packets can arrive and conform is ( N – 1) × T – τ seconds, which is exactly τ less than the time it would have taken if the packets had been arriving ...
