If you are making up unreasonable numbers then MISFIT works perfectly. If you are making up realistic numbers then MISFIT needs to move to a larger data type.

EDIT: Gah, sorry nevermind, I just need to release it from it.. no need for MISFIT for what I'm trying :)

Well it really not a problem in .NET a LONG datatype goes to +9,223,372,036,854,775,807

That might be a problem soon too

Oh dear...

I saw that I got:

Code:

12/5/2012 9:42:17 AM Error!
Loading Results from C:\XX\MFAKTO1
The process cannot access the file 'C:\XX\MFAKTO1\Results.txt' because it is being used by another process.

Excellent! MISFIT gracefully handled a collision and let whichever process that had a lock on results.txt continue unimpeded. MISFIT never issues file locks so it was some other process that had the file open with a lock.

In the leader board, is it possible to display specific categories? ex. (rank in TF, P-1, LL etc)

yes, but not something I'm going to work on in the near future. Lots of work underway for MISFITculu right now.

Version 1.0.0 is officially released. Almost all features from MISFIT have been ported over.

Something special for the CuLu version is the ability to manage check point files where CudaLucas.ini SaveAllCheckpoints=1. A very important feature to enable if you want to roll back to a "good" check point. The drawback is the HUGE amount of disk space it consumes and the need to purge out old checkpoint files..

Here is what I implemented in MISFIT CuLu to address checkpoint files: (see screenshot along with below statement)
Assumes checkpoint files are saved in CuLu's default checkpoint directory 'savefiles'. Purging is delayed 30 minutes after MISFITculu startup and then occurs as part of the Stalled Process Check cycle. The intial 30 minute startup delay is prevent MISFITculu from taking action during random startups. Only after everything is up and running will any purging be possible. Stalled detection must be on for this feature to be active. If any instances are stalled NO purging will occur since you may need the checkpoint files!

Enjoy!

Ooohh, that actually does sound really cool. Maybe over winter break I'll get off my ass and push 2.04 out of beta. (It's essentially done, but I wanted to add some lengths to the FFT table.)

This looks really great, Scott! I will work it into operation shortly. Thanks!

@ Dubslow- Just a note that I still encounter very occasional cases where the FFT is just a little low, resulting in worrisome error levels. I don't know if this is on your list. It is a rare event, after all.
