+     * Basic marker API for workloads to generate start and end markers for

+     * The marker API provides a way for instruments and output processors to hook into

+     *
+     * The marker output consists of a logcat tag 'UX_PERF' and a message. The
+     * message consists of a name for the action and a timestamp. The timestamp
+     * is separated by a single space from the name of the action.
+     *
+     * Typical usage:
+     *
+     * ActionLogger logger = ActionLogger("testTag", parameters);
