The main factor to consider are the metrics from latency of the endpoint. If it requiress tens of seconds or even minutes we are facing a problem related to LRTs. LRTs cannot be handled in a regular straight synchronous call. The amount of commited recources at the network, client and server levels are huge when connections are blocked for several minutes.
