8 statsd-tg is a traffic generator for StatsD. It generates dummy traffic that
9 can be used to stress-test / benchmark StatsD implementations and possibly
16 statsd-tg generates a set of dummy counters, timers, gauges and sets. The
17 number of each type of event can be configured using command line switches.
18 It then randomly triggers these events using a PRNG which distributes these
19 events uniformly. This means that if you configure 50 counters, 30 timers,
20 15 gauges and 5 sets, counters should make up aproximately half of the
21 generated traffic, timers 30%, gauges 15% and sets 5%.
