actually we were more interested in measuring the latency p9 imposes
on transmission, i.e.  the time it takes for the first byte to start
appearing on the network...

yes, this is not the best way to measure performance, but it was a
good exercise before porting netpipe natively to p9.  the results
seemed interesting enough to "publish" :)

at one point the receiver side was printing the total number of bytes
received, which was in line with calculations, so no huge discrepancy
there..
