User requested SCTP support for telco use-cases. Maintainer responded that hloader is not the appropriate tool—k8s-netperf should be used instead.

Changes

  • Added tool description and "Scope and Limitations" section to README
  • Explicitly documented HTTP/HTTPS-only scope (HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2)
  • Listed out-of-scope protocols (TCP, UDP, SCTP)
  • Redirected users to k8s-netperf for protocol-level load testing

This prevents similar feature requests and clarifies the tool's design intent.

hloader is not the right tool to perform this kind of operation, my suggestion is to open this issue in k8s-netperf -> https://github.com/cloud-bulldozer/k8s-netperf</comment_new>
