Notes on TUNE
[from automotive or musical usage] To optimize a program or system
for a particular environment, esp. by adjusting numerical parameters
designed as HOOKs for tuning, e.g., by changing #define lines in C.
One may tune for time (fastest execution), tune for space (least
memory use), or tune for configuration (most efficient use of
hardware). See HOT SPOT, HAND-HACKING.
