Distributed load #16

One possible approach to implement load generator capable of producing high load would be to have several load generators that run in parallel and produce a combined load. Each generator produces load data for itself, that is, there's no a central place that prepares data and distributes it to the load generators. However, a central coordinator is necessary to orchestrate them - to distribute configuration and load profiles, to start and stop them, to collect metrics data (e.g. calculating coordinated omission).
