Consistent naming of filters and combiners
Follow up of lhcb-datapkg/PRConfig#3
Names of combiners and filters are used for TES locations, show up in timing tables and counters. If named consistently, it will be easier to read and parse logs and find TES locations.
An example use-case is given in the issue linked above, where the throughput of filters combiners could be measured per WG in the throughput tests. Based on that, WG liaisons or line developers could be asked to investigate if slow combiners can be speeded up.
To do / to discuss:
- How would a naming scheme look like?
- If deemed useful, the machinery of parsing timing tables per WG needs to be set up. Where should results end up?
