.SH "NAME"

.PP

papi_multiplex_cost - computes execution time costs for basic PAPI operations on multiplexed EventSets\&.

.SH "Synopsis"

.PP

papi_cost [-m, --min < min >] [-x, --max < max >] [-k,-s]

.SH "Description"

.PP

papi_multiplex_cost is a PAPI utility program that computes the min / max / mean / std\&. deviation of execution times for PAPI start/stop pairs and for PAPI reads on multiplexed eventsets\&. This information provides the basic operating cost to a user's program for collecting hardware counter data\&. Command line options control display capabilities\&.
