  comment = {This version is only 2 pages. reddy:compiler-tr provides the full
  text. They discuss three primary issues. 1) Overlapping I/O with computation:
  the compiler's dependency analysis is used to decide when some I/O may be
  moved up and performed asynchronously with other computation. 2) Parallel
  execution of I/O statements: {\em if} all sizes are known at compile time,
  the compiler can insert seeks so that processes can access the file
  independently. When writing in the presence of conditionals they even propose
  skipping by the maximum and leaving holes in the file, and they claim that
  this doesn't hurt (!). 3) Parallel format conversion: again, if there are
  fixed-width fields the compiler can have processors seek to different
  locations, read data independently, and do format conversion in parallel.
  Really all this is saying is that fixed-width fields are good for
  parallelism, and that compilers could take advantage of them.}
