What if the guest sends N packets, then does some expensive computation (say the guest scheduler switches from the benchmark process to evolution). So now we have the marker set at packet N, but the host will not see it until the guest timeslice is up?

Well that's fine.  The guest will use up the remainder of its
timeslice.  After all we only have one core/hyperthread here so
this is no different than if the packets were held up higher up
in the guest kernel and the guest decided to do some computation.


3ms latency for ping?

(ping will always be scheduled immediately when the reply arrives if I understand cfs, so guest load won't delay it)
