Good catch. I think it was lost when perfdhcp was moved around from
tests/tools/perfdhcp to src/bin. Anyway, I dug out the latest version I
could find and put it here:

http://users.isc.org/~tomasz/perfdhcp/dhcp-perf-guide.html

section 4.5.3 of it discusses perfdhcp templates. I know that some
unit-tests are also using templates. You may want to take a look at
src/bin/perfdhcp/tests/testdata/*.hex.

Can you please open a ticket on kea.isc.org to better document perfdhcp
templates?

Thanks,
Tomek
