This table contains Nmap's timing data (srtt, the smoothed round
trip time; rttvar, the rtt variance; and timeout), all represented
as floating-point seconds. The ipidseq and qscan scripts were
updated to utilize the host's timeout value instead of the very
updated to utilize the host's timeout value rather than using a
conservative guess of 3 seconds for read timeouts. [Kris]
