The microbenchmark page states wrong path for .caliperrc on Windows

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. The http://microbenchmarks.appspot.com page states that the configuration 
file should be placed under C:\ on Windows, but it doesn't work. After looking 
at the source code in CaliperRc.java I have found out that the file should be 
placed under the user's directory, like on Unix.

I have some good news and some bad news.  Good news is that the very shortly 
pending release of Caliper 1.0 will make this problem obsolete - there is a 
completely redesigned webapp.  The bad news is that 1.0 breaks quite a bit of 
stuff on Windows.  I hope to bring proper Windows support shortly after 1.0 is 
released, but in the short term it's going to be a rough for the Windows folks.

As an aside, I'm quite curious to know what types of performance-critical code 
is running on Java on Windows.  As you might imagine, there isn't any at Google 
so the whole notion is a bit foreign to me.  Is the concern purely for 
development or are you actually trying to get real benchmark results on a 
Windows box?

Nothing special, I was experimenting with Caliper on a Windows box, but I 
personally do development on Unix like OS-es.
