This doesn't help for examining existing traffic, but if you want a
really simple "afs ping" (or to be clear, what you're looking for is RTT
for Rx packets, not AFS specifically), you can kind of use 'rxdebug
-version'. Timing the execution of that isn't great to try to measure
the actual rtt since there are other delays in there (e.g. starting the
program itself) but it may be a useful relative measure, to see if the
response starts to get slower or doesn't come back at all.
