-In the last milestone submission, my middleware implemented all functionality as necessary. However, the resource usage was extremely wasteful: each read thread took up nearly 100\% of the resources allocated to them and never went to a sleeping state. This caused more than 10-fold drops in performance when going from $T=1$ to $T=4$ (for $S=5$), and would have made the maximum throughput experiment useless. The changes can be seen on \href{https://gitlab.inf.ethz.ch/pungast/asl-fall16-project/commit/928e9bba132d34ecf9c00936babdd7fa2645e50f}{GitLab}.
+In the last milestone submission, my middleware implemented all functionality as necessary.

This caused more than 10-fold drops in performance when going from $T=1$ to $T=4$ (for $S=5$), and would have made the maximum throughput experiment useless. I made some small changes to fix this; they can be seen on \href{https://gitlab.inf.ethz.ch/pungast/asl-fall16-project/commit/928e9bba132d34ecf9c00936babdd7fa2645e50f}{GitLab}.
 
 To verify that the system is still stable, I re-ran the trace experiment. The throughput and response time are shown in Figures~\ref{fig:trace:throughput} and \ref{fig:trace:responsetime}, and are confirmed to be stable (and throughput is roughly 30\% higher). The Interactive Response Time Law also still holds (to within 0.46\%). For explanations of the figures, see Milestone 1 report.
