Thread: Page Faults ???

    Page Faults ???

    Would 5.8 million page faults in 18 hours be considered normal for this new client?

    I thought the last client was high, but I was mistaken.

    ok, i checked my longest running box

    12 hours

    1238 million

    that is 1.238 BILLION page faults


    is that bad?

    this box is also running without the extra memory switch

    do i win a cookie?

    also, i have been using "progress=1" since the phase II client, there was that problem early on where it wasn't updating the something or other thingy, dfGUI jeff said to lower the progress to fix it

    1.58 billion in 18 hours. I'M THE WINNER!

    Well, so far. I want a cookie too - chocolate choc chip, or something similar.

    BTW, this is on my work computer - 1Ghz P3, 128 MB, useram=0. I'm all the way to gen 42 on this protein - Got up to 180 or so before the switch. Yes, that's right, 180 generations, first set, on the first phase II protein. Average time per generation about 10 hours - I could the protein myself that fast!

    (Hey Howard, just kidding.)

    Well here's M$'s definition:
    The interrupt that occurs when software attempts to read from or write to a virtual memory location that is marked "not present."

    In Task Manager, page fault is the number of times data has to be retrieved from disk for a process because it was not found in memory. The page fault value accumulates from the time the process started.
    So if you are using the -rt switch, I don't understand why all the page faults.
