+Milliseconds in between each new connection when starting up\&. Default is no delay\&. Starting too many concurrent connections at once can trigger denial of service protection on the network, which limits the effectiveness of the test\&. Introducing a delay between starting each concurrent connection can work around this problem\&. The test may complete before full ramp up of concurrent connections is achieved\&.
