With ping, delay is actually measured. The router reports how long it takes 
to get replies.

EIGRP delay is not dynamically measured. Delay of each interface is 
inversely proportional to the configured interface bandwidth. Total delay 
for an EIGRP route is a sum of each interface delay, as reported in EIGRP 
Updates.

If you want EIGRP's delay to be somewhat more realistic, you can tweak the 
interface bandwidth.
