Can you show your results?

Here is my test comparing the median filter with 0.1 percentile and no
filter in a network with an asymmetrically distributed delay (mean 10
microseconds).

https://fedorapeople.org/~mlichvar/tmp/ptp/delayfilter.png

As you can see, the percentile filter added a significant asymmetry of
about 4 microseconds. In terms of RMS time error, it's about 3x worse
than the median filter and about 5x worse than no filter.

The shared part of the config was:
delay_filter_length 11
pi_proportional_const 0.04
pi_integral_const 0.00024

Well, in that case I think these changes would better be submitted and
reviewed together.
