This is my timing side-channel link collection:
http://www.subspacefield.org/security/security_concepts/index.html#tth_sEc31.2.4
I should probably break that section up into remote & local, but I'm
already 3 levels deep :-)
I'd definitely check out "remote timing attacks are practical", I think
that one has the most information for your case.
You might want to check out Bernstein's AES attacks, or a statistician,
to characterise the distributions you're looking at.
I asked on NANOG a few months ago, but didn't get any good network
latency information.
BTW, "least amount of time" isn't a good measure. It turns out that's too
unstable... 1st to 5th percentile measurements are much more stable.
