Class Description

                                                                      
 TPacketGenerator                                                     
                                                                      
 This class generates packets to be processed on PROOF slave servers. 
 A packet is an entry range (begin entry and number of entries).      
 Packets are generated taking into account the performance of the     
 remote machine, the time it took to process a previous packet on     
 the remote machine, the locality of the database files, etc.         
                                                                      


TPacketGenerator()
 Private default ctor.

TPacketGenerator(Stat_t firstEntry, Stat_t lastEntry, TTree *tree, TList *slaves)
 Initialize TPacketGenerator using a TTree and a list of slave processors.

TPacketGenerator(Stat_t firstEntry, Stat_t lastEntry, Int_t packetSize, TList *slaves)
 Initialize TPacketGenerator using the total number of entries, the
 initial packet size and the list of slaves.

~TPacketGenerator()
 TPacketGenerator dtor. Deletes the list of packets.

void Init()
 Initialize the TPacketGenerator. Called by the ctors.

Stat_t GetEntriesProcessed(TSlave *sl) const
 Return number of entries processed by slave sl.

Bool_t GetNextPacket(TSlave *sl, Int_t &nentry, Stat_t &first)
 Get next packet for slave sl. Returns kTRUE and sets first and nentry.
 In case no more packets return kFALSE (and set first and nentry == 0).
 The packet size for a slave is a linear function of the time diff between
 the processing of two packets relative to the fastest slave (i.e. the one
 with the smallest time diff). The fastest slave always processes
 packets of size fTree->GetPacketSize() (or of the size specified in
 the TPacketGenerator ctor).

Int_t GetNoPackets() const
 Number of packets generated.

void Print(Option_t *option) const
 Prints info about the packet generator. If option is "all", print also
 info about all packets.

void Reset(Stat_t firstEntry, Stat_t lastEntry, TList *slaves)
 Reset the packet generator for a new cycle.

void SetMinPacketSize(Int_t minps)
 Set minimum packet size. The default is 20% of the initial packet size
 (in case of TTree's the initial packet size is set in via
 TTree::SetPacketSize() and its default is 100).
