+### How to create some traffic with Java (Spring Boot)
+
+A simple load generator is provided in [this directory](./docker-compose/txeventq-load/) which you can use to create some traffic so you can experiment with the sample dashboard.
+
+To run the sample, first update [application.yaml](./docker-compose/txeventq-load/src/main/resources/application.yaml) with the correct IP address for your database, then start the application as follows:
+
+```bash
+mvn spring-boot:run
+```
+
+The application will create ten queues names TOPIC_0 through TOPIC_9 and randomly produce and consume messages on those queues.  The example dashboard shown below was monitoring traffic produced using this application.

 ### Metrics definitions
 
 The metrics definitions are provided in [this file](./custom-metrics-example/txeventq-metrics.toml).  You need to provide this file to the exporter, e.g., by adding it to your container image, or creating a Kubernetes config map containing the file and mounting that config map as a volume in your deployment.  You also need to set the `CUSTOM_METRICS` environment variable to the location of this file.
