Websocket API vs RTSDK - C/C++

Hi,
I am looking for answers to the following questions regarding the Websocket API and RTSDK:

(https://developers.refinitiv.com/en/article-catalog/article/refinitiv-real-time-sdks-performance-test-summary)

1. Does the Websocket API perform as the results shown in the image (Websocket JSON column)? Is there a specific number relative to these?

2. Is it possible to receive the streaming data via your own websocket connection (not through the ETA API) and decode it from RWF format with a decoder?

3. What is the difference between the Websocket in the Real-time SDK and the Websocket API?

Thanks in advance.

    Those number are from ETA SDK but you should be able to see similar results. Its important to note that conditions under which those updates were received are all documented in the test results - which include packet size, and high speed network from source to consumer.
