There is a very little bit about this in the manual, upon which I will
expand here.
UDP is an unreliable protocol, and the netperf UDP_STREAM test does not
attempt to add any reliability. The test is also very dependent on
outbound transmit queue overflows being reported with an ENOBUFs - on
systems where this does not happen, it is possible for netperf to report
greater than link rate sending numbers.
It is probable that packets were lost somewhere - check the netstat
stats on both ends - look for driver and UDP socket overflow stats.
