Photon/Phindows/SMP

Using 6.1A if I connect with Phindows to a SMP machine, the machine
will look up after a few seconds.

Running localy cause no problem.

Hi Mario,

Just pointed this out to the gui support team. Sounds like a problem with
phrelay’s thread handling, but hey what do I know, I’m hardware :wink:

Not sure that the problem comes from SMP. We often encounter some
understandable delays, and not only with Phindows. My think is that
there is something not ‘well lubricated’ in the tcp stack!

I’m not sure either but I get the impression it’s related to XPhoton.
If I slay it, it’s lockup free. To my knowledge I’m not starting
any program making use of XPhoton.

Every hour or so, my Phindows session will freeze for 2-3 seconds.
I have not been able to find the source (could well be the network
setup here or my machine).

This appears to be a bug in phrelay. It just happens quicker on an
SMP machine, but it seems to be the smae bug.

Thanks

Hello All

There is a new phrelay on the R&D Developes site. It is in the fixes
section. This phrelay fixes known lockup issues.

I’ll give it a try on an SMP machine tonight.

This isn’t the latest one is it? I was told a glitch with color text
was fix, but it isn’t ;-(

Has been working on an SMP machine for 20 minutes now without
any lock up, looking good!

You misunderstood 6 nines reliability Mario; it’s 20 minutes
downtime in forty years, not 20 minutes uptime with a reboot :slight_smile: :slight_smile:
