F5 Networks also has a DNS based system (www.f5.com). A new feature (real
soon now) coming out will eliminate most of the need for reverse pinging
to discover RTT to the client. We will instead sample traffic as it passes
through our load balancers, summarizing the data and passing it up to the
3DNS box for decision making.
