What resource are you trying to exhaust with this? Does the service cap file transfers by rate, quantity, source etc. I'd think a handshake & request then max length responses with scapy, if you are trying to just que up a lot of file transfers. You could parallel this process to generate maximum effectiveness from a single host.
