It does reduce the scope of the test to the TCP/IP stack though. If 127.0.0.1 
performs well then the test doesn't tell you much, but if 127.0.0.1 performs 
badly then it definitely tells you where you should be looking for the problem, 
or at least it tells you that you shouldn't be looking for problems in the 
DomX<->DomX layer.
