+/**
+ * ActivityRecorder helper class that informs the CPU if it can switch
+ * over to being idle or not. It works by having a time buffer as
+ * long as any time buffer in the CPU, and the CPU and all of its
+ * stages inform the ActivityRecorder when they write to any time
+ * buffer. The ActivityRecorder marks a 1 in the "0" slot of the time
+ * buffer any time a stage writes to a time buffer, and it advances
+ * its time buffer at the same time as all other stages. The
+ * ActivityRecorder also records if a stage has activity to do next
+ * cycle. The recorder keeps a count of these two. Thus any time the
+ * count is non-zero, there is either communication still in flight,
+ * or activity that still must be done, meaning that the CPU can not
+ * idle. If count is zero, then the CPU can safely idle as it has no
+ * more outstanding work to do.
