BPC (Bouncing Producer-Consumer)

From tasking-2.0 description

BPC, short for Bouncing Producer-Consumer benchmark, as far as I know, first described by [Dinan et al][1]. There are two types of tasks, producer and consumer tasks. Each producer task creates another producer task followed by n consumer tasks, until a certain depth d is reached. Consumer tasks run for t microseconds. The smaller the values of n and t, the harder it becomes to exploit the available parallelism. A solid contender for the most antagonistic microbenchmark.
