ctrl C twice really fast. also killing it would do the trick. There is no elegent way.
this could be simply a result of different architectures. Perhaps the calculations and such that dhe does lend itself to the G4's abilities. Some features are slower than x86, some are faster,...
my thoughts are based on the fact that the stats aren't tabulated by simply dividing your work by time. It takes into account other things to make the stats fair ...I think based on total time...
yea, sometimes you tend to produce circuits that apparently test as failures pretty quickly... There was a period of about half aday when each one took about 12 seconds or less. You range all over...
Yes, as i mentioned the windows versions of java all require you download the sdk to get the server jvm. I have no idae why they make you download the sdk to get the server jvm when in unix it comes...
something about the project bothers me. This is something that any computer and many electric engineers should be really interested in doing, yet we dont have that much activity. Maybe it's because...
no problem. I'd like to see the project move forward... perhaps look at circuits complex enough to be immediately useful instead of "too generic for direct use" like clock circuits for instance. ...
that was against packets at the same time. I'm not saying now it's 200% faster. I'm saying then it was, and still is. What took 10 minutes takes 3-4 minutes. What took 3-4 minutes takes less...
nevermind, i'm stupid. that dynamic compilation is a feature of the server jvm. Which is enabled by -server. I thought it was a separate thing altogether.
Stephen ..sure if you want you can join. it's teamsafe if you cant find it.
-server is always _ALWAYS_ going to be faster for cpu bound tasks in java. On any version. 1.3 i've found to be the...
Ok, so we have manual redraws. but the program itself is still creating the "pixmaps" for each and every circuit isn't it? Or does the "expose" signal start a function that actually does create the...
depending on the kernel, the nice level may be necessary to make things fair or not or depending on if you use that computer for something else, you may want to maket it run on a lower priority.. In...
ok, since moving to the server virtual machine, and picking and choosing which version of java was the fastest on both of my boxes. I have jumped to like second place for fastest team and really...
My bad. I didn't enable -server in the command line. This should be in the shell files distributed with the client. Increases speed 250% easily.
I'm not sure if this is indicitive of the linux client or not, but i'm noticing like 3 times slower performance on my linux machine compared to my windows one and the windows machine is only using a...
How come the java client (at least in 9x and linux) do not redraw the console by themselves. It's obvious that the graphics are being drawn, they're just never exposed unless you do something to...
maybe it would be useful to have the best asynchronous design side by side with the best synchronous. Since we're going to find the best asynchronous anyway since we find everything it wouldn't be...
my objection to a bunch of symlinked dirs was asthetics. I said it was ugly. That still stands.
It would take a lot of space if you copied it for each host, but that's not necessary.
As...
no, it wasn't a praise. It was a question.
If i'm clustering i'm running things locally, and they are executing remotely. clustering is a specific range of distributed computing and I'm...
I asked a question if it could be done. I wasn't complaining that it couldn't be done. You need to read the post instead of reading other peoples responses. I'm really getting tired of being...
it can be done. One way would be moving the net code to a separate script/program. you run that once and the folding client on all the the computers. All the net script/program would do is wait...
Who was whining? I was asking a question. And the difference between one directory and 30 is not "almost" the same. I dont care that they're just links or not. I was asking if it could be done in...
each computer mounts the same drive. I'm not making copies of the same stuff on the same drive ... that's like 300MB of duplicate info. I can write my own scripts to automatically start and stop...
that's not much of a fix. Blah. oh well. 30 P4 2Ghz machines, only one is useful.
