Any time spent processing the packets should be very small compared to
time waiting.  We're talking about times in milliseconds here: 1ms would
be a long time to spend processing a packet, so the difference of
including that time is going to be mostly nothing.

What's the blue branch?

Are you seeing a problem with the way that timeout times are handled, or
do you just think the code could be improved here?  If there's a real
problem you're trying to sort out it would be good to know what it is.
