I think that would be very useful. Exactly what kind of latencies would
this tool measure?
The backend is trivial (there are a bunch of similar
little tools out
there), but I'm not a GUI person. Would anyone like to help design and
implement this? Since time is money ;-) a simple Gnome and/or KDE
front end would be the easiest way to start, and of course there should
be a separation between the GUI and the back end so anyone can
implement a leaner version if they want to. Anyone want to help with
the GUI side?
To me the GUI appears a lot more trivial than the backend :) So I'd like
to offer my help writing a GTK frontend (steering clear of any particular
Gnome/KDE dependencies).
Are you going to make a fully functional command line version?
