configuration file. For example, a ping configured to be performed each 5
seconds takes 6.
-- The overhead when handling a link that is down causes delays with the next
- pings. This happens if the ping interval is a value close to the ping timeout.
- So the application wait this amount to ping the next host.
- This bug has something to do with the blocking ping, because the ping method
- returns only after a reply or timeout, thus increasing the interval to the
- next schedule ping to the same host and to the other hosts.

- The sequence number is always 1. As the BoostPinger is created for just one
ping.
