The host software, when creating a data stream to be sent to the USRP2
for TX, will create the data as fast as the processor allows, and TX
on the GbE at full wire rate. The USRP2, however, is "consuming" data
at a fixed rate proportional to the configured TX RF baseband sample
rate. Even at the fastest sample rate, 25 Msps (interpolation rate
4), this is only 800 Mbps + framing overhead. So the USRP2 doesn't
have problems "keeping up", it's just that the host can create the
digital sample stream faster than real time, so the USRP2 pauses it
periodically to keep the average data rate down to what is needed.
