and the http column shows up just fine,  including the time the test took
and a nice graph.

The question I was just asked is, is it possible to specify "max response
time", so that if the time shown is greater than N seconds I get a red
flag??  I don't see a way to set that in the man pages for either bb-hosts
or hobbit-client.cfg.
Not per-test or per-host, it is a global timeout, which you can set as an option to bbtest-net, which is documented in bbtest-net's man page, just add it to the bbtest task in hobbitlaunch.cfg.

However, per-test or per-host or per-host-test timeout limits would be nice ....
