Okay. What will this do to my user's ping and traceroute times, if
anything? I've got users who tend to panic if their latency hits 250ms
between here and the moon (slight exaggeration, but only slight). 

I just love it when I've got people blaming me because the 20th hop on
a traceroute starts returning  * * * instead of times.
