  //
  // This test measures the abstraction overhead of using the named
  // parameter interface.  Some actual test results have been recorded
  // in timings.txt in this source file's directory, or
  // http://www.boost.org/libs/parameter/test/timings.txt.
  //
  // Caveats:
  //
  //   1. This test penalizes the named parameter library slightly, by
  //      passing two arguments through the named interface, while
  //      only passing one through the plain C++ interface.
  //
  //   2. This test does not measure the case where an ArgumentPack is
  //      so large that it doesn't fit in the L1 cache.
  //
  //   3. Although we've tried to make this test as general as
  //      possible, we are targeting it at a specific application.
  //      Where that affects design decisions, we've noted it below in
  //      ***...***.
  //
  //   4. The first time you run this program, the time may not be
  //      representative because of disk and memory cache effects, so
  //      always run it multiple times and ignore the first
  //      measurement.  This approach will also allow you to estimate
  //      the statistical error of your test by observing the
  //      variation in the valid times.
  //
  //   5. Try to run this program on a machine that's otherwise idle,
  //      or other processes and even device hardware interrupts may
  //      interfere by causing caches to be flushed.
