Also, keep in mind that point uses ICMP which often uses a slow path through network hardware. So a ping implemented in SSH will likely be interacting with the hardware differently. While the two values will largely correspond there will be enough difference to cause comparisons between the two to have larger error bars than you might like. By the way, I'm assuming you're doing this to get latency overhead associated with ssh packet processing. If not can you even on what you'd like to find out?
