I have generated around 4G of attack using Hping from 6 servers, and I could 
have still increased it but that was all I needed. So I think hping does good 
job..

I've been using a combination of Mausezahn (

http://www.secdev.org/projects/scapy/ )  for our 1G/10G network stress testing 
needs ( mostly for probing and checking the resilience of new network appliances 
). 


I noted that these tools were not updated recently (for one year aprox). Do you 
guys have any suggestions on better approaches / really good new tools to do 
this? ( note that currently our budget does not allow the use of hardware based 
solutions ).

Best Regards,
