However, I never see single digit delays!
This isn't going to help much, except as another data point, but I tried
'dig google.com' just out of curiosity. The first response took 66
msec; here's the second:

My machine is nothing special (Athlon 1<>2 GHz).
*Yes, I considered that it might be this ancient box, but it can ping
itself in less than 100µs!
I intend to try it on one of the faster computers I have but this is
my primary box. An old Pentium III 450 mHz w/~400 megs of RAM. And
this is the one I am most interested in, everything I do seems to be
done here. So maybe single digit times are out of the question?
