Depends on what you mean by 'heavily'. PAPI calls it in two places: once in
the PAPI_stop functionality, to basically clean things up; and once in a
routine that checks multiplexing behavior and creates a scratch event set
for testing. Seems that for long-running applications where calipers may
come and go, event sets should be considered as ephemeral. 'delete' seems
naturally symmetric to 'create'.
