Stephen Brooks 2011-03-14 18:40:41 | OK, if you go to http://stephenbrooks.org/muon1/hidden/scan/ you will see an alpha build of the Muon1 EXE. I'd like to redo scan 1 with this new client - just replace your usual Muon1 EXE by this one. It may be slower and is a larger file because I've still got debug tracing switched on. Feel free to play around in all modes, graphical, etc. and report any bugs you find here! A quick reminder:- I've made some queue.txt files which you can see here: http://stephenbrooks.org/muon1/hidden/scan/1/ What I hopefully want some volunteers to do is:
Hopefully as the blocks come back in, I should be able to build up a detailed graph - a cross-section across the optimisation of Linac900Ext10d2, centred around one of the recent best yield results, in the direction of the ls5l parameter (a solenoid length for one of the middle blocks of the linac). |

Stephen Brooks 2011-03-15 16:08:39 | Some useful advice from earlier in the thread (especially if you are on the "upward" sloping part with a lot of best-so-far results) waffleironhead 2010-09-26 22:18:28 2) If you dont want to be running each of these tests five times I suggest you download the 100 result sample file and change the file to results.dat - that way you already have cached the current best optimizations and your client wont be running rechecks on -1.777777 results and wasting a bit of time. |
Stephen Brooks 2011-03-15 17:13:44 | Already had some bug reports in v4.45_alpha1 from a colleague:

Stephen Brooks 2011-03-16 00:24:17 | K`tetch reported muon1 -c -q once just quit immediately instead of running, but can't replicate it. |
waffleironhead 2011-03-16 01:24:02 | I have been running unstopped since ~the time I posted above with no complaints so far. It does seem to be significantly slower than the 444d version. Typically I would get ~200 mpts per autosave cycle, but with this version I am hovering around 50 mpts. Task manager shows all four cores are being used by the application though. |
tomaz 2011-03-16 05:57:57 | muon1 -b -q quited immediatly to me too but it was because I forgot to rename queue400-499.txt Othervise it runs smooth on W7,64bit in -b mode.

Stephen Brooks 2011-03-16 12:13:21 | OK, there's an v4.45_alpha2 up on the scans page, which has debugging off so it's faster. Still not fixed all the bugs yet, so there'll be an "alpha3" too. See also the versions file for details on what version does what. |
waffleironhead 2011-03-16 13:31:54 | running alpha2 now. ~230 mpts per autosave cycle. fairly good speedup, thanks |
