I would say the original idea behind -b is that thrulay will wait for
the next send time doing a while loop instead of using a sleep-like
call. This can be used to achieve a better precision at the expense of
CPU usage and is particularly useful in systems with suspicious sleep
implementations or/and sloppy schedulers.
