Pekr 10-May-2007 [1247] | Doc - do you think that Rebollers will now turn to bad habbit = we start using 1 thread for 1 connection? I wonder how much more expensive is that in comparison to current multiplexing aproach, using just ports? |
Andreas 10-May-2007 [1248] | well, no. that's no logical consequence. both os processes and os threads compete for the same resources |
Pekr 10-May-2007 [1249] | ok, will look into scheduling. I thought that OS actually schedules between tasks, not caring how many threads your app does run. |
Dockimbel 10-May-2007 [1250] | I don't think so, because we had async before threading so we didn't took bad habits like java programmers ;-) |
Andreas 10-May-2007 [1251] | only that, at least with recent 2.6+ linux threading, processes are far more expensive to create and to switch between |
Pekr 10-May-2007 [1252] | Doc - so we can bet :-) I once again think, that RT will take easier path, so that they will rewrite protocols so that they use threads, no need to care about multiplexing :-) |
btiffin 10-May-2007 [1253] | It's too bad MS didn't support POSIX more fully. A lo of threading issues got resolved what? two decades ago. :) |
Dockimbel 10-May-2007 [1254x2] | Petr, I don't think so, I guess Carl won't let that happen ;-) |
Need to go, guys, maybe I'll came back here during the dinner so we can relay some questions to Carl. | |
Anton 10-May-2007 [1256] | Pekr, whether 1 task with 5 threads or 5 tasks (with only 1 thread each) is faster totally depends on your situation; your OS, your application (are you dependant on disk access or network access), bandwidth, timers, and OS task/process scheduling priority. |
Brock 10-May-2007 [1257] | I missed more of the presentations than I saw, hopefully we will see them online somewhere soon. |
Graham 10-May-2007 [1258] | Is there going to be a summary of the talks? |
[unknown: 9] 10-May-2007 [1259x2] | Reichart, we found someone that speaks faster than you. :P I need proof! And, remember, I'm ALWAYS slowing my self down....I consider this a challenge! Oh, I can misspell at 120 wpm... |
Was there a statement about there being video of the presentations? | |
Henrik 10-May-2007 [1261] | Gabriele deduced that there would be since there were two cameras filming |
Chris 10-May-2007 [1262x2] | FYI, this chat group is rebroadcast here: http://devcon2007.on-arran.com/chat/ |
I assumed nobody would mind as the group is labelled [web-public]. | |
[unknown: 9] 11-May-2007 [1264] | I'm cool. Do you think anyone has said anything that shoud not be public? |
Graham 11-May-2007 [1265] | Yes ... me :( |
[unknown: 10] 11-May-2007 [1266x3] | hehe |
Is there an Agenda for today? | |

Sunanda 11-May-2007 [1269] | Rebolinth....The schedule is here: http://devcon2007.rebdocproj.org/schedule.html I don't know of any changes to it -- yet. The conference starts in 10 minutes, at least in theory. Ladislav and I have arrived on time :-) |
Pekr 11-May-2007 [1270x3] | thanks for the info, Sunanda - the live stream is not there yet, right? |
Rebolinth - there were 2 presentations missing yesterday - Reichart's, and Carl's "Embedding REBOL" .... | |

Mario 11-May-2007 [1275] | I still remember your sleepy face during the DevCon 2005 breakfasts :) |
Pekr 11-May-2007 [1276] | Reichart - how went your bike-ride yesterday? Is there big damage to your park? Or is it renewable? |
Mario 11-May-2007 [1277x2] | face = faces not yours in particular Reichart |
Reichart: did anyone told you the software/hardware used for the streaming? | |
[unknown: 9] 11-May-2007 [1279] | lost about 350 hectacres.....very sad. |
Will 11-May-2007 [1280] | when does the show begin? |
[unknown: 9] 11-May-2007 [1281] | I do a 20km ride in about 45 minutes...love teh ride, but the whole valley was yellow with ash. |
Mario 11-May-2007 [1282] | What's happened to the park?! |
[unknown: 9] 11-May-2007 [1283] | Fire |
Mario 11-May-2007 [1284x2] | :( |
Too hot weather or an accident? | |
[unknown: 10] 11-May-2007 [1286] | nucliar powerplant experiments probably ;-) |
[unknown: 9] 11-May-2007 [1287x2] | Homeless man living in the park smoking a cig caugt himself and park on fire. |
No, have not learned system specs of Cam set up in france. Nor if I'm giving a talk right now. | |
Mario 11-May-2007 [1289] | Didn't they set up a skype session with you? No tests before the event? |
[unknown: 9] 11-May-2007 [1290x2] | LOL |
You mean afterI asked for a test last week?.................................no.... | |
[unknown: 10] 11-May-2007 [1292] | ..ici le truc..le record-button... |
Mario 11-May-2007 [1293] | That was my fault too... But I had to deal with Telecom Italia: no way to change settings of their lines/firewalls in less than a month and without a new contract... |
[unknown: 10] 11-May-2007 [1294x2] | btw..does the Qt stream work? I mean was it only the whole time yesterday? and how is the sound? |
only=online | |
Sunanda 11-May-2007 [1296] | Petr -- I learned a lot about Texas during the banquet, but I wasn't close enough to Carl to hear any dropped revelations. |
