Time between frame submission to firmware and tx-completion on one of
my ath10k machines:

Legacy 54mbps: ~18ms
Legacy 6mbps: ~37ms
11n MCS 3 (nss=0): ~13ms
11n MCS 8 (nss=1): ~6-8ms
11ac NSS=1 MCS=2: ~4-6ms
11ac NSS=2 MCS=0: ~5-8ms

Keep in mind this is a clean room environment so retransmissions are
kept at minimum. Obviously with a noisy environment you'll get retries
at different rates and higher latency.
