Well the obvious one is that the netperf measurement uses more bandwidth
as the latency decreases. Have been meaning to add that to the Flent
bandwidth graphs, but now I'm not sure I'll even bother :P

Also, the netperf measurement will stop at the first packet loss (later
versions added in a timeout parameter that will restart it, but even
with that we often see UDP latency graphs completely stopping after a
few seconds of the RRUL test).
