Sure.  There are multiple goals.  The logging goal is a little weird
as motivation to my eye.  In any case, there are other papers, too.

I was sort of hoping this kind of thing was logged and folks could
give me a clue with actual data.  Seems like a natural thing to log.
But, I guess not.  Or, maybe folks are not willing to share.
