Lassultság

Lassultság is a Hungarian noun formed from the adjective lassú (slow) with the suffix -ság, meaning the quality or state of being slow. The term can describe a general characteristic of slowness in motion, behavior, or processes, as well as more specific notions such as latency or delay in time-dependent systems. In standard usage, the more common term for the same concept is lassúság; however, lassultság appears in some contexts as a variant spelling or in older texts, and may be encountered in technical writing to emphasize slowness as a property of a process rather than only a momentary delay.

In everyday language, lassultság can refer to slow performance or response, for example, a machine showing lassultság in its operation, or a person displaying lassultság in completing tasks. In technical disciplines, it is often discussed alongside related terms such as késleltetés (latency), késés (delay), or reakcióidő (reaction time). The concept is measured by time-related metrics: reaction time, processing time, throughput, or bandwidth in informatics; and delay time in control systems or communications.
