 1. A File Header
 2. Data Chunks Per Rank

 Each Data Chunk consists of a small header, which indicate where the rank ran. This is followed by the main data section which contains the timing data and additional aggregated data in the case of Rank 0. Finally a tiny footer indicates the end of the chunk.

-### Data Chunk Data
+## Data Chunk Data
 After the Data Chunk header comes the recorded timing data, with rank 0 including additional aggregated data. If multiple randomized permutations of the ranks are used then the recorded timing data of each permuation follow directly after each other. Let us first present the table for rank 0 and then the table for the other ranks.
