You might have to do it statistically. Take the same reading hundreds or thousands of times, determine confidence intervals, etc.

I think there is a LOG target for iptables which might mark time, but probably not accurately enough, and would add delay of its own.

NAME
fw - fwmark traffic control filter
SYNOPSIS
tc filter ... fw [ classid CLASSID ] [ action ACTION_SPEC ]
DESCRIPTION
the fw filter allows to classify packets based on a previously set fwmark by iptables. If it is identical to the filter's handle, the fil-
ter matches. iptables allows to mark single packets with the MARK target, or whole connections using CONNMARK. The benefit of using this
filter instead of doing the heavy-lifting with tc itself is that on one hand it might be convenient to keep packet filtering and classifi-
cation in one place, possibly having to match a packet just once, and on the other users familiar with iptables but not tc will have a less
hard time adding QoS to their setups.
OPTIONS
classid CLASSID
Push matching packets to the class identified by CLASSID.
action ACTION_SPEC
Apply an action from the generic actions framework on matching packets.
EXAMPLES
Take e.g. the following tc filter statement:
tc filter add ... handle 6 fw classid 1:1
will match if the packet's fwmark value is 6. This is a sample iptables statement marking packets coming in on eth0:
iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -j MARK --set-mark 6
