"""Test the performance of the task farming system.

This script submits a set of tasks via a LoadBalancedView.  The tasks
are basically just a time.sleep(t), where t is a random number between
two limits that can be configured at the command line.  To run
the script there must first be an IPython controller and engines running::

    ipcluster start -n 16

A good test to run with 16 engines is::

    python task_profiler.py -n 128 -t 0.01 -T 1.0

This should show a speedup of 13-14x.  The limitation here is that the
overhead of a single task is about 0.001-0.01 seconds.
