OK, let me be very clear.

I would like you post the results of regression tests, to make sure that
you do not add a new regression.

It seems that you want _us_ to check all this for you.

With "rate 1Mbits delay 100ms 10ms", and ping probes sent every 100ms,
the pong reply of _all_ probes should be between 90ms and 110ms

Is it still the case after your patch ?

Thanks
