getXXXCost is the most ambiguous. getALUUnitThroughput is better?

I'd like to make it so we don't have to read the comments to distinguish this from getUserCost and getOperationCost. So if we don't change this name, then change those? 

I suppose we should change all of the throughput APIs in one shot if we're going to do this. But if there's no support, then I'll just update the code comment.
