Detailed Description

This traffic generator simply sends data as fast as possible up to MaxBytes or until the application is stopped (if MaxBytes is zero).

Once the lower layer send buffer is filled, it waits until space is free to send more data, essentially keeping a constant flow of data. Only SOCK_STREAM and SOCK_SEQPACKET sockets are supported. For example, TCP sockets can be used, but UDP sockets can not be used.
