<div class="moz-cite-prefix">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.</div>

Cool, on it, and have fit the plots. Could you reiterate what we
should be looking for by using Amdahl's Law? It's been a while
since we covered that topic. Thanks,</div>
