Detailed Description

Usage: ./cmsBenchmark.py [options]
   
Options:
  --cpu=...            specify the core on which to run the performance suite
  --cores=...          specify the number of cores of the machine (can be used with 0 to stop cmsScimark from running on the other cores)
  -n ..., --numevts    specify the number of events for each tests/each candle/each step
  --candle=...         specify the candle to run instead of all the 7 candles of the suite
  --step=...           specify the step to run instead of all steps of the suite
  --repeat=...         specify the number of times to re-run the whole suite
  -h, --help           show this help
  -d                   show debugging information

Legal entries for individual candles (--candle option):
HiggsZZ4LM190
MinBias
SingleElectronE1000
SingleMuMinusPt10
SinglePiMinusE1000
TTbar
QCD_80_120

Legal entries for specific tests (--step option):
GEN
SIM
DIGI
L1
DIGI2RAW
HLT
RAW2DIGI
RECO
and combinations of steps like:
GEN-SIM
L1-DIGI2RAW-HLT
DIGI2RAW-RAW2DIGI
and sequences of steps or combinations of steps like:
GEN-SIM,DIGI,L1-DIGI2RAW-RAW2DIGI,RECO
Note: when the necessary pre-steps are omitted, cmsPerfSuite.py will take care of it.

Examples:
./cmsBenchmark.py
 This will run with the default options --cpu=1, --cores=4, --numevts=100, --step=GEN-SIM,DIGI,RECO --repeat=1 (Note: all results will be reported in a directory called Run1).
OR
./cmsBenchmark.py --cpu=2
 This will run the test on core cpu2.
OR
./cmsBenchmark.py --cpu=0,1 --cores=8 -n 200
 This will run the suite with 200 events for all tests/candles/step, on cores cpu0 and cpu1 simulataneously, while running the cmsScimark benchmarks on the other 6 cores.
OR
./cmsBenchmark.py --cores=8 --repeat=10 --candle QCD_80_120 
 This will run the performance tests only on candle QCD_80_120, running 100 evts for all steps, and it will repeat these tests 10 times, saving the results in 10 separate directories (each called RunN, with N=1,..,10) to check for systematic/statistical uncertainties. Note that by default --repeat=1, so all results will be in a directory called Run1.
OR 
./cmsBenchmark.py --step=GEN-SIM,DIGI,RECO
 This will run the performance tests only for the steps "GEN,SIM" (at once), "DIGI" and "RECO" taking care of running the necessary intermediate steps to make sure all steps can be run.
