What is the specific problem you are having timing this operation? Remember that if the connection is going out over a network, transfer times can vary greatly depending upon network traffic.

i want to measure time between sending data from 'datasocket write' to datasocket server. i know that there is no confirmation that data has been readed by ds server and i'd like to know if this measurement is possible. i make research to compare delays in data transmission when using various protocols (ds, tpc, udp)
If you write and read on the same machine, you could send the timestamp to the server. Then, when this is read, take the current timestamp and compare the differences.
