Using the basic WARPLAB SISO reference design version 2, it seems to take a long time to transmit multiple packets? The m-code in TxRx_Test_warplab_siso_v1.m lists the sample rate at 40MHz, does this imply that the transmitted symbol rate is 5 Mbps in the SISO version 2 if the upsample factor for each symbol is 8?
What is the limiting factor(s) that prevents rapid transmission of multiple packets.

In that example, the symbol rate is 5Msym/sec (40MHz sampling, 8x rate-change)
WARPLab works by constructing a vector of raw complex samples in MATLAB, then downloading these samples to the WARP node via Ethernet. This download takes a while. Once downloaded, this vector is fed to the radio board's DAC to be transmitted over the air. The WARPLab Rx process is the exact reverse (Radio->ADC->buffer->Ethernet->MATLAB). The Tx/Rx cycle rate is limited by the time required to download and upload vectors of raw complex baseband samples via Ethernet.
