As people have pointed out, this would not work well for Events. However,
this is exactly what stages are for.
Use separate stages for the different types of MatMult. I did this, for
example, when looking at performance
on different MG levels.

What most experimenters take for granted before they begin their
experiments is infinitely more interesting than any results to which their
experiments lead.
