• Refactor objective_functions.py so that everything is in functions rather in run on import of the .py file. It should be such that if I run with --synthetic then it's OK that the data files don't exist.
• Delete non-adaptive lipo code (or move to another file where it's not in the way) - also, we discovered it's incorrect because it doesn't do the while loop thing to actually make n iterations.

For us to continue next time: figure out why it's now ridiculously slow. Maybe we can pick a test function and really dive in - reason about what parts of the space should be not rejected, etc. We'll have to come back to this.

Regarding 34df14e, a keyword to look into is memoization. There are probably a few solutions to this issue that don't use a mess of global variables.
