    A slightly older version was checked into FreeBSD on Oct 31 2002 and
    converted for -current. Attached is what we're running. Feel free to
    forward me any bug reports, especially if they included fixes.

    This is a netgraph module that we have code in TCL to drive to create
    high transmit rate for arbitrary packets. You can achieve about
    half of gigabit rate for 64-byte packets with this on a broadcom
    bge or intel em card [about 800Kpps].
