   Patch automatizing the usage of the file-based technology to handle outputs.
   After this patch PROOF users can define as an option to Process an output file for their results
   and choose if the merging goes via file or in memory. User can also decide to save theit results
   in a set of files identified by a name (dataset).
   Administrators can force merging-via-file or can make it conditional to the resident memory exceeding
   a given threshold.

   The new options are documented at
                                         http://root.cern.ch/drupal/content/handling-outputs

   Since TProofOutputFile is now used by TProof, the class has been moved from proof/proofplayer
   (libProofPlayer) to proof/proof (libProof).
   The selector tutorials/proof/ProofSimple.h,.C has been modified to allo testing the new options,
   and a new test has been added to stressProof.

  Several optimizations in the low level PROOF event loop (TProofPlayer::Process):
  - Per-event calls to TEventIter::GetNextEvent are replaced by per-packet calls
    to a new function TEventIter::GetNextPacket and a for loop over the returned
    range;
  - Progress information is filled in on per-packet pace just before asking for
    a new packet, instead of being filled for each event;
  - In TProofProgressStatus, the relevant setters in were inlined, and the (expensive)
    calls to SetLastUpdate() reduced to the minimum required;
  - Status of objects is checked using bits instead of functions calls;
  - Check whether to dump memory info is done before calling CheckMemUsage.
  These optimizations allow to reduce dramatically the overhead introduced by the
  operations PROOF needs to perform during the event loop. A measurement of the
  overhead can be obtained from a very light computational task, for example,
  generating one random number and filling one histogram; executing this task
  within a PROOF-Lite session with 1 worker now takes only 1.8 times the time
  required by a straight loop in the parent ROOT session; the same number before
  was about 13. 

  The patch also introduces a couple of small changes enabling the use of
  TProofPlayerLocal to process selectors in the local session using the PROOF
  iteration mechanism; this is very useful for optimizations studies.

  Finally, a couple of missing protections were added in TProofPlayer.

    From Taesoo Kim and me.

    Add support for selector-by-object processing in PROOF.
    The selector object, created and configured locally by the user, is added to the input
    list and recuperated from there on the worker machines for processing. Any input list
    setting in the selector itself is not streamed but temporarly moved to then standard
    input list, so that user can use the selector input list as container of processing
    information if they find convenient to do so.
    Process(...) methods with the file name argument replaced by 'TSelector *' have 
    introduced where relevant (TProof, TProofPlayer and their derivatives, TDSet). 
    Two tests for the new functionality have been added to test/stressProof.cxx (tests 25
    and 26).

   Fix merging of TProofOutputFiles with submergers (see http://root.cern.ch/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=12598).
   In such a case the submergers should produce some intermediate files; this was not correctly handled.
   A tutorial using this merging technology will be soon added.

   - Terminate a proofserv after it has been stopped for large memory footprint and it has
     sent the results back
   - Notify information about which object was being merged if a memory exception happens
     during merging on the master
   - Allow to set the HWM and stop-process fractions via the environment

  Patch to improve the diagnostic in case of exceptions. Information about the event and file being
  processed at the moment the exception was raised is sent to the client, e.g.

0.5: caught exception triggered by signal '1' while processing dset:'EventTree',
   file:'http://root.cern.ch/files/data/event_3.root', event:1 - check logs for possible stacktrace

  The patch also fixes a problem with submergers observed when a worker was stopped because above
  the memory limits: this worker was established as merger but could not do the work, for obvious
  reasons, freezing the session.

From Katerina Opocenska:

    Patch implementing the new submerger functionality to speed up the merging phase.
    At the end of the query, a set of workers are promoted submergers and assigned a
    sub-set of workers to merge. Once each sub-merger has merged its sub-set of workers,
    it sends its result to the master, which merges the partial results into the final
    set of results.
    The determination of the sub-mergers is always done dynamically, based on the recent
    performance of workers. An optimal (i.e. giving the highest speed-up) number can be
    calculated analytically under simpleassumptions.

    Merging via submergers is by default disabled. To enable it, with the optimal number
    of sub-mergers, one should set the integer parameter 'PROOF_UseMergers' to 0, i.e.

                     proof->SetParameter("PROOF_UseMergers", 0)

    To force S sub-mergers (regardless of the optimal number) do

                     proof->SetParameter("PROOF_UseMergers", S)

  Patch for improved performance monitoring. The 'Rate Plot' button in the progress
  dialog is renamed 'Performance plot' and shows up to 4 plots with the event/sec,
  the average read chunck size, the number of active workers and the number of active
  PROOF sessions on the cluster, all as a function of processing time.

  The read chunck size plot allows to monitor the usage of the cache.

  The istantaneous processing rate (event/sec) is now better estimate: a few issues
  with the normalizing times have ben solved, removing the artificial structures that
  were observed.

  The possibility to set a max packet time length is introduced (default 30 s); this
  can be changes with the parameter PROOF_MaxPacketTime.
  The size of the cache is also taken into account to optimize the use of the cache.

  The parameter PROOF_UseParallelUnzip has been introduced to toggle the use of the 
  parallel unzip (default off for now).

  A page describing the new performance plots is under preparation at 
           http://root.cern.ch/drupal/content/progress-dialog

   From Jan:

   - Added the possibility to handle removed workers and partly processed packets. When a worker is stopped
     while processing a packet it finishes, the current event and the rest of the packet is reassigned to another
     worker. This is done via two interfaces:
       - TVirtualPacketizer::AddProcessed(TSlave *sl, TProofProgressStatus *st, TList **)
       - TVirtualPacketizer::ReassignPacket.
   - New class TProofProgressStatus used to keep the query progress stauts in all the TProofPlayer objects and in
     TPacketizerAdaptive::TSlaveStat. This class is also used to structure the relevant information send in
     kPROOF_GETPACKET and kPROOF_STOPPROCESS messages.
   - The class TPacketizerProgressive is removed completely.
   - The PROOF protocol version is increased to 19: this is to handle the changes in the kPROOF_STOPPROCESS and
     kPROOF_GETPACKET messages in Master - worker communication.

From Jan:
- A new optional version of PROOF with dynamic worker startup.
  It can be enabled by the admin or a user with 'Proof.DynamicStartup'.
  A session starts only on the master. When a query processing starts
  at the master TXProofServ::GetWorkers() is called. It receives a 
  list of machines from the scheduler and the workers on the
  machines are started. The environment is copied from the master
  to the workers. It includes: the include and dynamic library paths,
  the set of enabled packages as well as the macros loaded by the user.

- A new method TProof::AddWorkers(TList *workers) was added. It adds
  the workers just before the query.

- A packet resubmitting mechanism. When a worker dies all the packets
  that it processed are resubmitted.

- In TPacketizerAdaptive: fixing initialization of fgMaxSlaveCnt. By
  default it was initialized twice.

  Summary:

  + Improvements
    - Add support for SSH SOCKS4 tunnelling; the local port for the tunnel can be specified
      in the master URL, e.g. TProof::Open("master/?tunnel:8000")
    - Add the possibility to plot the estimated instantaneous rate
    - Add "PROOF_ForceLocal" parameter to the !TPacketizerAdaptive; if set to 1, all the data
      are processed locally.
    - Add support for remote grep functionality while retrieving logs (needed by the forthcoming
      memory monitor)
  + Bug fixes
    - Several small fixes to revive the multi-master mode.
    - XrdProofdProtocol:
      - add missing lock to the client instance in SendMsg to avoid screwing up requests from
        workers on the same machine
         - lock the mutex of the requester when setting prorities
         - add notification during Reset
         - fix problem with the detection of the 'allow' directive
         - fix problem with the parsing of the return value from XrdProofServProxy::TerminateProofServ()
         - always use the effective user to retrieve info fom another server
           (XrdProofdManager::GetProofConn is now used)
         - fix possible dead-locks from debug notifications done after hard-killing a session
         - re-enable the garbage collector thread of the connection manager in XrdProofConn to
           fix a problem with closing physical connections;
         - fix a problem with !CleanupProofServ in the case of a non-privileged daemon running
           in multi-user mode
         - introduce a timeout when waiting for the startup of a 'proofserv'.
    - XrdProofConn: init mutex in the ctor; lock in SendRecv
    - XrdProofSched: add support for using the priorities defined in the group manager to define
      the number of workers for sessions
      - TProof:
         - Broadcast priorities to unique nodes only
         - timeout after 5 mins the initial Collect to avoid clients getting stuck at this stage
         - add support for generic timeout in Collect (disabled by default)
         - fix a problem with SendFile.
      - TXProofServ: add a call to !TProof::InterruptCurrentMonitor() in Terminate() to stop 
        infinite loops in Collect
      - TXSocket:
         - Implement a flag to interrupt a TXSocket while waiting for messages
         - Split the session creation timeout in 4 attempts: the total timeout is the same but
           it may circumvent occasional forking problems.
      - XROOTD: 
         - fix a potential (possibly accademic) memory leak in the client
         - fix a access permission problem with Kerberos ticket forwarding
         - fix bug preventing 'locate' to work properly
         - re-enable optimized 'locate'
