Is there anyone putting this kind of reusable performance testing system into ZeroMQ or maybe into czmq?

I build this functionality into any project that uses zeromq so that I can track the latency between any two endpoints (and any intermediate points too). This data is printed to a log in a format that is easily parsed by an external tool. The tool reads the log and calculates all of the timing measurements along with statistics (mean, median, mode, standard deviation, etc). It outputs the results into a tabular format which can then be loaded into Excel for pretty graphs & charts.

Say load increased more than anticipated or tested numbers, when that happens are there any metrics available that can point to router/dealer being a bottleneck. How can I really tell if I need to scale?
