// This artificial program runs a lot of code.  The exact amount depends on
// the command line -- if an arg "0" is given, it does exactly
// the same amount of work, but using four times as much code.
// If an arg >= 1 is given, the amount of code is multiplied by this arg.
//
// It's a stress test for Valgrind's translation speed;  natively the two
// modes run in about the same time (the I-cache effects aren't big enough
// to make a difference), but under Valgrind the one running more code is
// significantly slower due to the extra translation time.
