==============
TCPStatsClient
==============
The ``TCPStatsClient`` class has a very similar interface to
``StatsClient``, but internally it uses TCP connections instead of UDP.
These are the main differencies when using ``TCPStatsClient`` compared
to ``StatsClient``:
* The constructor supports a ``timeout`` parameter to set a timeout on
all socket actions.
* ``connect()`` and all methods that send data can potentially raise
socket exceptions.
* **It is not thread-safe**, so it is recommended to not share it across
threads unless a lot of attention is paid to make sure that no two
threads ever use it at once.
