Thanks. I thought of this gropher first but am not really sure whether this is the right one to use for relative metric.
For a region say A, I ping to a local box in region 'A' and ping to remote box in region 'B' which involves a WAN latency. Can I use the average ping metrics to these boxes and say that my typing latency is 'x' times more in remote box when compared to the latency in local box?
Is it a right metric to use?
