 The specification of a plan class has the following format.

+In version numbers, M is major, m is minor, R is release.
 
  <name>X</name> :: the name of the plan class
- <virtualbox/> :: VirtualBox application

  <min_cpus>x</min_cpus> :: requires at least X CPUs (may be fractional)
  <max_threads>x</max_threads>:: use at most this many CPUs
  <avg_ncpus>x</avg_ncpus>:: average # CPUs used.  Use for non-compute-intensive apps;
    for others it's calculated for you.
- <projected_flops_scale>x</projected_flops_scale>:: in estimating this app's FLOPS on a given host,
-   multiply peak device speeds by this (0 < x <= 1). For GPU apps, use 0.2 or so
+ <projected_flops_scale>x</projected_flops_scale>:: multiply projected FLOPS by this factor.
+   Use this to favor one class over another.
+   For example, if you have both SSE and non-SSE versions, use 1.1 and 1.0 respectively.
  <os_regex>regex</os_regex>:: use only hosts whose operating system name matches the given regular expression
