The `--test-parameter=ping_hosts=gstatic.com` information appears in the command-line summary but not in the charts. Is this correct? If so, the charts display significantly different latency depending on which -H host gets used. The Terminal display (bottom) shows fairly consistent ping times and transfer rate measurements using either of the two hosts. This raises two questions: 1. Could flent charts use the `--test-parameter=ping_hosts=...` instead of values from the -H host? 2. Why is there a discrepency between the `--test-parameter=ping_hosts=...` reading (showing 30-38 msec in my tests) and a separate, concurrent fping test (see original post, where it was running 20-22 msec)?
