ICMP option it's suppossed to be more accurate to get network latency information.
In 3.0 version we drop perl usage for ping and rely on system's ping command, much more portable and we don't need to run as root. Perl ICMP ping is not threadsafe and locks are slowing down alot the network monitoring server.
