Still bumming around for how to easily simulate long latencies.
There is NISTnet but that is fugly old 2.2 code; and Dummynet, and hitbox 
which are FreeBSD based. The existing traffic shaper might do, but it seems
to be limited to lower speed lines and needs some work (using atomic_set
do own locking for instance).

Probably "the cowboy way" would be to right a new net/scheduler to just
do FIFO delay.

Any ideas/comments? Somebody have some code sitting in a drawer?
