I'm not completely sure 
that I actually switched from fping to hobbitping, though, because I'm still seeing fping-std*  files in server/tmp (as a result of "CMD bbtest-net --report --ping --checkresponse --debug" in hobbitlaunch.cfg.).
Those filenames are built into the bbtest-net utility. I've changed them
for the 4.2 version, but you're probably still running the 4.1.2p1
version of bbtest-net.
I am.  All I did was drop the new hobbitping binary in place and make the config file change.

Hobbitping is certainly faster than fping.  My conn charts showed an immediate, persistent drop in connection times.  Excellent.
