+/* Measures the correctness of the "nice" implementation.
+
+   The "fair" tests run either 2 or 20 threads all niced to 0.
+   The threads should all receive approximately the same number
+   of ticks.
+
+   The mlfqs-nice-2 test runs 2 threads, one with nice 0, the
+   other with nice 5, which should receive 1,904 and 1,096 ticks,
+   respectively, over 30 seconds.
+
+   The mlfqs-nice-10 test runs 10 threads with nice 0 through 9.
+   They should receive 672, 588, 492, 408, 316, 232, 152, 92, 40,
+   and 8 ticks, respectively, over 30 seconds.
+
+   (The above are computed via simulation in mlfqs.pm.) */
