Ok I am getting remote/local accesses for my threads now. But I am not
sure which line corresponds to which event.

$ /mnt/scratch/bgoglin/cpunode/linux-2.6.31/tools/perf/perf record -f -s
-e r1000001e0 -e r1000002e0 -e r1000004e0 -e r1000008e0 ./stream
[...]

I can easily sort them by thread id, but I don't know how to match my 4
events with each group of 4 line.

Maybe perf report earned some better way to show per-thread statistics
in the meantime?
