The incoming packets only go out of the system if it is a router: any host with ipforwarding and two Ip devices.

Outgoing delay is by not writing/sending, just hold in a buffer, or by having plenty of socket buffer and the nyquist turned on/up.

Why would anyone want delay? Fuller packets? Leave the nyquist on and fill the buffer with enough to fill a packet, and you get full packets.

Well, when sending UDP, if you get too hot, they disappear! My buds at NASDAQ must be the worlds best at tuning UDP. The only local defense is a huge socket buffer, so they are not discarded, and throttling yourself to some rate by modeling the buffer at some level of network access. If you are broadcasting, you get to see your own packet come back up the stack to you, so you can have some sort of high water mark of N packets not seen. I guess if you could set the NIC promiscuous, you could see your packets leaving. Downstream, still a turkey shoot!
