Stephan Hoffmann 3c80d680f2 New package: cache-calibrator
The Calibrator is a small C program that is supposed to analyze
a computers (cache-) memory system and extract the following
parameters:

    number of cache levels
    for each cache level:
        its size
        its linesize
        its access/miss latency
    main memory access latency
    number of TLB levels
    for each TLB level:
        its capacity (i.e. number of entries)
        the pagesize used
        the TLB miss latency

It is also recommended as a load generator for realtime testing in:
