I wanted a quick and dirty way to determine server latency on my Kubuntu machine. This just parses simple output from ping and provides only the time values.

You can put as many servers or IPs as you want in the for loop to get a comparison. Just simple little interesting statistic.

Code:
for x in drexel.edu google.com;do echo -n "[$x]: "; ping -c 1 $x | head -n 2 | tail -n 1 | awk '{split($8,arr,"=")} END{print arr[2],$9}';done
Code:
[drexel.edu]: 0.576 ms [google.com]: 6.23 ms
