Not aware of any, but assuming you can feed the beast fast enough, and your 
feeding process doesn't hog a lot of resources you could easily see when it 
completed from the timestamp on the output file (e.g. /var/spool/mail/mark).

(a quick Google turned up 
http://www.stalker.com/MailTests/Bench-Oct20-1999.html which seems to refer 
to  http://www.dbnet.ece.ntua.gr/~george/makecf/stalker/, also 
http://www.Technovations.com/ offer a trial version of their commercial 
package...I got bored after checking the first page from Google).
