Not a Load gen or benchmarking tool #188

People are confusing fake it as a load gen or benchmarking tool.

"Why can I only put in XYZ documents per second into Couchbase with fake it."

On the Read.me file could you put a disclaimer that fakeit is a sample document generator not a load gen tool and create a link to Couchbase pillowfight for load gen. https://blog.couchbase.com/performance-testing-load-testing-couchbase-pillowfight/

@Fujio-Turner I agree, I've talked about it being a development tool. There are ways to generate millions/billions of records with FakeIt but it's a little convoluted at the present time.
