Current partitioning has several problems:
1) Accounting only accounts for memory references through pointers.
2) Accounting for the number of VOPs a statement will generate and accounting
for how many accesses a memory symbol will experience are mixed (thus not
allowing to weight these factors differently easily)
3) The goal the pscore function tries to set at is not clear (partly due to
reason 2).
