Hi,

I don't know about real benchmarking but one improvement I can think
of is measure the times on host, with something like the following:

[user@host] $ nc -l 10000; time nc -l 10000

and

[user@guest] $ nc host_ip_here 10000 <<< started; ./myapp; nc
host_ip_here 10000 <<< finished

(nc is netcat)
It's still very inaccurate but the error is small if ./myapp takes
long. Perhaps someone will have better ideas.
