Title: Send all graphite metrics in one payload.

Should minimize the overhead of establishing a new TCP socket for each metric being sent.

I've tested this sending a copy of one of my system YAML reports to NC via TCPSocket#puts with one large string. I'm afraid I don't have a graphite instance to test with properly but this seemed like a good issue to get ticked off.
