Sorry, I'm not well versed in the network model; most of my work has been on the new ptrace-based syscall interposition. That sure sounds like a bug, though.

We recently added a discussion section to Shadow's GH repo: https://github.com/shadow/shadow/discussions. That'd be a good place for your questions. More knowledgeable folks are pretty responsive there, but aren't on HN :)

Apologies for the ambiguity and lack of context - to clarify, I fiddled around with raw tc/qdisc (part of Linux's network stack) a while back, and was wondering if Shadow had more accurate timing simulation.

The discussion section sounds like exactly the place to follow up on this sort of thing, thanks for the reference. (Once I verify what I'm looking for is actually exotic :P)

Thanks for replying!
