If anyone else wants to give it a try for me, I was just using Iperf
and this script to hog cpu:
----------
#!/bin/bash

while true
do
  true
done
----------

This is not a particular good "hog" program. You might want to search
the archives for "slurp" -- it consumes CPU in a better fashion, and
also prints out the amount of CPU it gets. Quite handy!
