// If the SPEC_CPU flag is set, we need to make sure that all floating point numbers are perfectly representable in
// binary format. Thus, we changed the IPIN_COST_INDEX base cost from 0.95 to 0.875.
// The IPIN_COST_INDEX base cost is changed from 0.95 to 0.875 so it is perfectly representable in binary format (this change is made for SPEC benchmark).
// This number is perfectly representable in a binary mantissa (without round-off) so we can get the same routing result on different platforms.
// Since the router cost calculations and heap use floating point numbers, normally we get slightly different round off with different compiler settings,
// leading to different heap sorts and hence different routings.
// To make result validation for SPEC easier, we choose all router parameters to result in calculations that fit perfectly in a 24-bit binary mantissa.
// .875 = 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 can be perfectly represented in a binary mantissa with only the first 3 bits set.
