 *
 *
 *  What does this program do:
 *
 *  On latest processors exist two MSR registers refered to as:
 *    - MPERF increasing with maxium (P0) frequency in C0
 *    - APERF increasing with current/actual frequency in C0
 *
 *  From this information the average frequency over a time period can be
 *  calculated and this is what this tool does.
 *
 *  A nice falloff feature beside the average frequency is the time
 *  a processor core remained in C0 (working state) or any CX (sleep state)
 *  processor sleep state during the measured time period. This information
 *  can be determined from the fact that MPERF only increases in C0 state.
 *
 *  Note: There were kernels which reset MPERF/APERF registers to 0.
 *        This got reverted by git commit
 *                  18b2646fe3babeb40b34a0c1751e0bf5adfdc64c
 *        which was commited to 2.6.30-rcX mainline kernels
 *        For kernels where the kernel rests MPERF/APERF registers to 0,
 *        this tool will not work. It cannot be detected whether this happened.
 *
 * Possible ToDos/Enhancments:
 *
 *  - Refresh the screen when mulitple cpus are poked and display results
 *    on one screen
 *    -This would introduce a lot more complexity, not sure whether it's
 *       wanted/needed. I'd vote to better not do that.
 *  - Manpage
 *  - Translations
