+ PAPI provides the tool designer and application engineer with a consistent
+ interface and methodology for use of the performance counter hardware found
+ in most major microprocessors. PAPI enables software engineers to see, in near
+ real time, the relation between software performance and processor events.
+ In addition Component PAPI provides access to a collection of components
+ that expose performance measurement opportunites across the hardware and
+ software stack.
