# - sorting + OrderedDict() in SimpleXMLGenerator::startElement(): + ~ 27 %
# - sorting + OrderedDict() iff there are attributes: + ~ 18 %

   Usage: futex_demo [nloops]
                    (Default: 5)

   Demonstrate the use of futexes in a program where parent and child
   use a pair of futexes located inside a shared anonymous mapping to
   synchronize access to a shared resource: the terminal. The two
   processes each write 'num-loops' messages to the terminal and employ
   a synchronization protocol that ensures that they alternate in
