disable_bw=bool Disable measurements of throughput/bandwidth numbers. See
disable_clat.
+gtod_reduce=bool Enable all of the gettimeofday() reducing options
+ (disable_clat, disable_slat, disable_bw) plus reduce
+ precision of the timeout somewhat to really shrink
+ the gettimeofday() call count. With this option enabled,
+ we only do about 0.4% of the gtod() calls we would have
+ done if all time keeping was enabled.
