You can't know this.  After the post, the data could have been sent, received by
the other side, and a reply already generated.  In order to time the round trip
time, the post must be included.

Your fix is equivalent to telling runners in a race to go, then starting the
stop watch after they're already running.  The race might take longer than it
takes you to start the stop watch, but the resulting time that you get isn't the
amount of time that it took anyone to run the race.

How is taking the time stamp the problem?
