Sergey Matveychuk d43148058e The program thrulay is used to measure the capacity, delay, and
other performance metrics of a network by sending a bulk TCP or UDP
stream over it.

Special features of thrulay include:
* For TCP, ability to measure round-trip delay along with throughput
* For UDP, ability to measure
  - one-way delay, with quantiles
  - packet loss
  - packet duplication
  - reordering
* For UDP, the ability to send precisely positioned true Poisson streams
  (microsecond errors in sending times)
* Human- and machine-readable output (ready to be fed to gnuplot)

The package consists of a client (thrulay) and a daemon (thrulayd).
The thrulay client is usable immediately. The thrulayd deamon needs to be
started, which will happen automatically in the next boot cycle. You may
also start it manually by entering thrulayd as root.
