Hi,

I notice the ping time of my Soekris server is pretty veriable. When the server 
is idle, the ping time (from a stable connection) is constant +/- 8ms. Then, I 
start rain(6) on the server, via ssh, and the ping times immediatly increases 
to an average of +/- 25ms :
64 bytes from 80.101.175.113: icmp_seq=293 ttl=252 time=8.390 ms
64 bytes from 80.101.175.113: icmp_seq=294 ttl=252 time=30.958 ms
64 bytes from 80.101.175.113: icmp_seq=295 ttl=252 time=8.148 ms
64 bytes from 80.101.175.113: icmp_seq=296 ttl=252 time=23.423 ms
64 bytes from 80.101.175.113: icmp_seq=297 ttl=252 time=20.705 ms
64 bytes from 80.101.175.113: icmp_seq=298 ttl=252 time=31.037 ms
64 bytes from 80.101.175.113: icmp_seq=299 ttl=252 time=29.752 ms

I don't see why the usage of bandwith would make the ping take longer. It looks 
like rain(6) is using just little cpu resources. My upload is +/- 90kB/s.

Greets,
 Pieter Verberne
