Hm.. not sure what you mean by time-base tests, but to me that
distinction sounds like regression vs. performance testing. Or do you
think of time-based regression tests? I certainly favor regression tests
that are event-based, as I've run into too many false errors due to
unexpected timings already.

Agreed. I would also note here, that Tsung seems especially well suited
for performance testing of clustered solutions, as you very likely have
to cluster the testing agents as well to put a decent load on the SUT.
