fping is S-L-O-W... this is the best run I had: 
$ time /usr/local/sbin/fping -r1 -g 10.100.19.1/24 -a 2> /dev/null
10.100.19.1
10.100.19.50
10.100.19.85
10.100.19.87
10.100.19.200

real    0m18.816s
user    0m0.010s
sys    0m0.000s

Maybe I did something wrong, but I could only get it down to one retry, and the default sure isn't zero, despite the --help claim.

I tried Time-Slice Concurrent Ping with the modifications I posted in that thread and tuning the parameters (allow 254 outstanding pings, 1 second timeout), and this is what I get: 
$ sudo time ./multiping.pl

With this one, it's always less than 4.25 seconds, which is much more useful to me.
