This will simulate load to authentication server by storming calls to getpwuid and deliver results as:
##############################################################
Total failures: 0
Total attempts: 4096
Elapsed time: 0.851012
Attempts per second: 4813.09
Percentage of failed attempts: 0%
##############################################################
Options:
- --noise, a random interval between 0 and $arg microseconds to wait between subsequent calls
- --n_attempts, number of attempts per task
This is an MPI code and will start simulating after synchronization at an MPI barrier.
