Hello again

Is there really no other option to speed up the ping test, maybe by using multiple instance of fping/hobbitping. A collegue has the same issue on a Hobbitserver running on HPUX.
I am running Redhat EL.

sorry for the delay. I just tried fping. But the turnaround time is exactly the same, no benefit. Any other ideas?
