+# This is a sample code about how to use timerlat's timer by any workload
+# so rtla can measure and provide auto-analysis for the overall latency (IOW
+# the response time) for a task.
+#
+# Before running it, you need to dispatch timerlat with -U option in a terminal.
+# Then # run this script pinned to a CPU on another terminal. For example:
+#
+# timerlat_load.py 1 -p 95
+#
+# The "Timerlat IRQ" is the IRQ latency, The thread latency is the latency
+# for the python process to get the CPU. The Ret from user Timer Latency is
+# the overall latency. In other words, it is the response time for that
+# activation.
+#
+# This is just an example, the load is reading 20MB of data from /dev/full
+# It is in python because it is easy to read :-)
