I have the same problem after upgrading to 4.2.0, but I reverted to the version of hobbitping that was beta tested under 4.1.2p1, and both my ping times and bbtest-net durations dropped considerably (1522 hosts pinged in 17 seconds with the old hobbitping, down from 55 seconds with the new hobbitping).
A diff against the two versions reveals quite a few changes that were made; I have been extremely pleased with the first version so I'll stick with that for a while longer. I'll try running the new version through gprof, but I am not as skilled at these things as Henrik :)

Hello,
I have updated my hobbit installation from 4.1.2 to 4.2.0 The new hobbitping gives different results in the web interface (about 40ms latency on a local network) than fping (0.15 ms),i tried to reproduce these results with ping,fping & hobbitping but they give me same results on command line (0.15ms)
fping -e msrv999lno001 msrv999lno001 is alive (0.16 ms)
PING msrv999lno001 (10.0.4.173) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from msrv999lno001 (10.0.4.173): icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.126 ms 64 bytes from msrv999lno001 (10.0.4.173): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.113 ms
/usr/lib/hobbit/server/bin/hobbitping 10.0.4.173 10.0.4.173 is alive (0.18 ms)
In the web interface I get 44 ms
I reverted to fping and results are now the same on command line and web interface.
Does anyone has the same issue ?
Yes, I saw exactly the same - hobbitping used by hobbit had a delay of tens of ms, used on the command line had a delay of fractions of an ms.
