test WinHPC launchers on all platforms...
test WinHPC launchers on all platforms the tests don't actually launch anything, they just write template files, so they can run on any platform.

"""Test the performance of the task farming system.
This script submits a set of tasks via a LoadBalancedView. The tasks
are basically just a time.sleep(t), where t is a random number between
two limits that can be configured at the command line. To run
the script there must first be an IPython controller and engines running::
ipcluster start -n 16
A good test to run with 16 engines is::
python task_profiler.py -n 128 -t 0.01 -T 1.0
This should show a speedup of 13-14x. The limitation here is that the
overhead of a single task is about 0.001-0.01 seconds.
