The size of cyclic buffer will be calculated automatically with
[PATCH 2/3], so users don't have to specify the size manually.

-Specify the buffer size in kilo bytes for analysis in the cyclic mode.
-Actually, the double of \fIbuffer_size\fR kilo bytes will be allocated in 
memory.
-In the cyclic mode, the number of cycles is represented as:
-
-    num_of_cycles = system_memory / (\fIbuffer_size\fR * 1024 * bit_per_bytes 
* page_size )
-
-The lesser number of cycles, the faster working speed is expected.
-Default \fIbuffer_size\fR is 1024.

 Running in the non-cyclic mode, this mode uses the old filtering logic same as 
v1.4.4 or before.
 If you feel the cyclic mode is too slow, please try this mode.
