New feature
Description:
Started this directory for performance measurement programs.
The programs here got compiled but not automatically run (just
like the examples direcotry.)
The programs have existed but now gathered to this one directory.
iopipe.c, chunk.c and overhead.c were from test. perf.c and mpi-perf.c
were from testpar.
Platforms tested:
eirene (serial and parallel).
overhead failed during run due to some property error. This is probably
due to the recent change of properties code.
perf and mpi-perf do not compile correctly for Parallel mode.
Checking them to make them available to others.
