So in the version of Amdahl's law that I gave you to use in gnuplot, the
parameter f is the fraction of code the must be run serially.   If you
had a perfect speedup f would be very close to zero.  If you had code
that could not be run in parallel then f would be 1.  In other words, 
(1-f) is the fraction of code that can be run in parallel.
