Just a warning to everyone, not that it affects the test or results in
case of 1 thread, but that should be -t1 instead of -t 1.
This little difference would matter if you decided to use more than 1 thread.
"-t NUM" will not pick up the NUM value, as optional arguments must
not have a space between the option and (optional) argument.
