1. DONE

   : Verify that that the reads are actually using the parallel code.

2. DONE

   : Run a set of reads with bes_serial.conf and bes.conf - compare times

3. DONE

   : Get the whole file - get the time

4. Find the cross-over point.

5. DONE

   : Build code with keep-alive off

   1. DONE

      : Run the serial code that way, maybe the parallel code too.

• Re-run the tests using a production build.

• Measure the transfer-only time.
