[SETI@Home] hitparade van 27 September

[APClll]

Vandaag is er niet zoveel nieuws te melden. Veel mijlpalen, geen storingen bij Seti en helaas ook nog geen groene mannetjes gevonden. Maar nu de Gauntlet in alle hevigheid is losgebarsten, kan dat natuurlijk nooit lang meer duren. Hoogstens nog een jaar of 25
(dat van die groene mannetjes vinden; storingen zullen er vast wel eerder optreden )

Ik weet niet of 't oude nieuws van vorige week al bekend gemaakt was, maar op zo'n dag zonder nieuw nieuws lijkt me dit wel een geschikte plaats. Al was het maar omdat we dan weer iets hebben om over te praten...

Hey gang. Sorry to say the first software radar blanker tests were kind of a bust - apparently some radar still leaked through. But we have strong theories as to why, and the fixes are trivial. I'll probably start another test this afternoon (a long process to reanalyze/reblank/resplit the whole test file - may be a day or two before workunits go out again).

To answer one question: these tests are happening in public. As far as crunchers are concerned this is all data driven, so none of the plumbing that usually required more rigorous testing has changed, thus obviating the need for beta. And since there are far more flops in the public project, I got enough results returned right away for a first diagnosis. I imagine if I did this in beta it would take about a month (literally) before I would have realized there was a problem.

To sort of answer another question: the software blanker actually finds two kinds of radar - FAA and Aerostat - the latter of which hits us less frequently but is equally bad when it's there. The hardware blanker only locks onto FAA, and as we find misses some echoes, goes out of phase occasionally, or just isn't there in the data. Once we trust the software blanker, we'll probably just stick with that.

On the upload front: Sorry I've been ignoring this problem for a while, if only because I really see no obvious signs of a problem outside of complaints here on the forums. Traffic graphs look stable, the upload server shows no errors/drops, the result directories are continually updated with good looking result files, and the database queues are normal/stable. Also Eric has been tweaking this himself so I didn't want to step on his work. Nevertheless, I just took his load balancing fixes out of the way on the upload server and put my own fixes in - one that sends every 4th result upload requests to the scheduling server (which has the headroom to handle it, I think). We'll see if that improves matters. I wonder if this problem is ISP specific or something like that...

I'll slowly start of the processes that hit the science database - the science status page generator, the NTPCkrs, etc. We'll see if Bob's recent database optimizations have helped.

Je weet toch wel dat je 'm rechtop moet zetten? Anders kunnen de buren zo moeilijk hun huis in of uit
