Unfortunately I don't think that would work for me. I need the delay of a stream of packets. Not just a single delay number. More specifically: I'm testing RTP (VoIP) packet speeds and would like to predict lag (ignoring jitter...separate measurement). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
