What are you actually using this for?
Notice there is also an option called "ratep" which can be used for
setting the packet rate per sec. In the pktgen.c code, it will use the
"delay" variable.

I think the resolution is in nanosec.

Nice this allow us to remove some lines in the other scripts.
As all script have line:
pg_set $dev "delay $DELAY"
I am the original author of the scripts, so I'm allowed to say that
doing this was actually kind of pointless, because the default delay
value is already zero. Although, you now took advantage of this
sillyness ;-)
If we want to use "ratep" instead, then we actually need to change all
those lines, because pg_set "ratep" and "delay" share the same setting
in the kernel.
