Note that this latency will have nothing to do with the LIVE555 code; it packs the H.264 NAL units (or MPEG-4 frames) into RTP packets and transmits them as soon as it gets them. The latency will be caused almost entirely by your (“ffmpeg”) encoder at the sender’s end, and by the decoder/rendering at the receiver’s end.
