Has anyone done any work on an alternative distribution carrier<br>
which would simulate network problems? I'd like to stress test<br>
a distributed application by introducing the sort of delays and<br>

Alternatively can you point me at where I can hack the existing<br>
carrier top insert a random delay?<br>

Otherwise it wouldn't be a fair test. Have you considered using
