Ping is simple utility which Pinger uses for analyzing the connectivity of nodes. Sometimes the* *problem is that many hosts do not give high priority to pings and many block it. This results in high RTT for pings. It is a big difference for closer hosts than far hosts.In order to find the difference if exist, we recorded response time of pings vs HTTP hosts from SLAC to other hosts. Sheetsee datasheet here
Interesting We found that the relative difference is quite small. Relative difference is a ratio between ping time and HTTP time responses.
