Returns a pointer to a floating point number that contains the CPU factor of the specified host.

This routine obtains static resource information about hosts. Static resources include configuration information as determined by LSF configuration files (see lsf.shared and lsf.cluster) as well as others determined automatically by LIM at start up.

ls_gethostfactor returns a pointer to a floating point number that contains the CPU factor of the specified host.

This routine returns a pointer to dynamically allocated data structures which can be freed in subsequent calls.
