Not long after the start of multi-clients test, not a single station is an eligible candidate for transmission since global virtual time(g_vt) is smaller than the virtual airtime(s_vt) of all the stations. As a result,
the Tx has been blocked and throughput is quite low.

This may mainly due to sync mechanism and accumulative deviation from the
devision calculation of g_vt.

For example:
Suppose we have 50 clients in first round.
Round 1:
STA     weight  Tx_time_round  wt_sum   s_vt    g_vt  valid_for_next_Tx
.       .       .                       .               .
.       .       .                       .               .
.       .       .                       .               .

After this round, all the stations are not valid for next transmission due
to accumulative deviation.

And if we add a new #51,
Round 2:
STA     weight  Tx_time_round   wt_sum  s_vt    g_vt  valid_for_next_Tx
.       .       .                       .               .
.       .       .                       .               .
.       .       .                       .               .

Sync is done by:
max(g_vt of last round - grace period, s_vt)
and s_vt of #51 = max(2000 - 500, 0) + 1024 = 2524, and it is more than the
final g_vt of this round.

After this round, no more station is valid for transmission.

I'm not sure I understand this. Was there supposed to be numbers in
those tables above?
Yes, it looks like there are some display issues. Will fix it in next version.
