+  Note that for every round, we have to fully train a detector and run
+  the test through all the test scenes at 10 different thresholds,
+  including at very conservative thresholds for which the
+  computational efforts is very high. Hence, each round takes more
+  than three days on a powerful PC. However, the script detects
   already running computations by looking at the presence of the
   corresponding result directories. Hence, it can be run in parallel
   on several machines as long as they see the same result directory.
