As stated by Marcus, you are limited by the ARM processor.

Do you mean a known fix sequence that you repeat continuously?

Yes I want to send the same sequence continuously all the time. 

Does it need to be send continuously or periodically,
eg. sending the same preamble sequence every x ms?

I need to send continuously.

Depending on the answer and the size of the sequence, you could use:
 - tx_stream->send with an attached timestamp (tx_medatada).
   This worked on E310 for 320 IQ at 20 MHz, send every ms.
 - A custom RFNOC block (since the Replay is not implemented on E31x) to
bypass the ARM.

Currently, I use tx_stream to send the sequence.

- I create my usrp object
- I set the different settings (frequency, sample rate, gain)
- I create a tx_streamer
- I configure the metadata :
           - I set metadata.has_time_spec to True because I want to start the 
transmission on a PPS retrieved by the GPS antenna connected the USRP GPS port.
           - I set metadata.start_of_burst and metadata.end_of_burst to True
           - I configure metadata.time_spec to choose the start time of my 
transmission
- I create my sequence
- I use tx_stream in a while loop to transmit continuously :
           while True :
                    tx_streamer.send(sequence, metadata)
                    metadata.has_time_spec = False
