th1a | hi replaceafill. | 16:31 |
---|---|---|
replaceafill | hey th1a | 16:36 |
replaceafill | sorry i was on the phone | 16:36 |
th1a | np | 16:37 |
th1a | I was chatting with David Ally. | 16:38 |
replaceafill | ah | 16:38 |
replaceafill | how's he doing? | 16:38 |
th1a | He's going to be visiting some pilot schools next week, so things are creeping along. | 16:38 |
th1a | He was asking about fill down for attendance (as in, he wanted it but hadn't found it). | 16:38 |
th1a | So what I learned yesterday evening is that my intuition that an external USB 2.0 drive would be faster than the internal micro-sd card was incorrect. | 16:40 |
th1a | Must be some differences in the internal bus speeds or something. | 16:40 |
replaceafill | ah | 16:40 |
replaceafill | the usb is slower? | 16:40 |
replaceafill | doesn't it have usb 3? | 16:41 |
th1a | No. | 16:41 |
th1a | It still might have been faster, just in terms of transfer rate. | 16:42 |
*** yvl has quit IRC | 16:43 | |
th1a | Anyhow, it isn't. | 16:43 |
th1a | So I think I'm going to get a $50 ssd drive. | 16:45 |
th1a | eg http://www.amazon.com/Intel-2-5-Inch-Solid-State-Drive-Brown/dp/B004U8TBJY/ref=sr_1_10?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1417616068&sr=1-10&keywords=sata+ssd+drive | 16:46 |
replaceafill | $50! | 16:46 |
replaceafill | i paid like $140 for the 80GB version like 3 years ago | 16:47 |
th1a | Technically it is an internal drive, but there isn't anyplace for dust or whatever to get in (there's plenty of dust inside a pc case after all). | 16:47 |
th1a | Well, they make these little ones for caching on Windows. | 16:47 |
th1a | I got a 32GB one pretty cheap several years ago. | 16:47 |
th1a | Hm... I may need power. | 16:49 |
th1a | Uh... | 16:53 |
th1a | Do you remember how that works? | 16:53 |
replaceafill | power? | 16:53 |
th1a | I did this before... | 16:54 |
th1a | Shoot. | 16:55 |
replaceafill | ? | 16:55 |
th1a | Powering the ssd drive. | 16:56 |
th1a | How did I power it? | 16:57 |
th1a | I guess I can get one of these: http://www.amazon.com/Screw-Less-ORICO-2588US3-2-5-inch-Enclosure/dp/B00B0RD2RA/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1417618651&sr=1-1&keywords=external+sata+ssd | 16:58 |
replaceafill | laptops have the power built-in next to the sata connector | 16:58 |
th1a | Yes, but I'm not plugging it into a laptop. | 16:58 |
replaceafill | in old atx cases you needed an aditional cable | 16:58 |
th1a | Yeah... | 16:58 |
th1a | I have no idea how I rigged it before (on the pandaboard). | 16:58 |
replaceafill | ah | 16:59 |
replaceafill | didn't you use an enclosure or something? | 16:59 |
th1a | Eh... | 16:59 |
th1a | no. | 16:59 |
th1a | Ah, these enclosures still use usb. | 16:59 |
th1a | Argh. | 17:00 |
replaceafill | yeah | 17:00 |
th1a | Hm, I think the esata port provides power. | 17:00 |
th1a | That was what I thought. Wikipedia says it is possible. | 17:01 |
th1a | OK, I'll mess with it. | 17:01 |
th1a | After I find my esata cable... | 17:01 |
replaceafill | :D | 17:01 |
th1a | OK! | 17:02 |
th1a | So... I should announce these two little revisions we put out. Did you add the release notes? | 17:03 |
replaceafill | not really, they don't add new functionality | 17:04 |
replaceafill | they just fixed bugs | 17:04 |
th1a | Well, we should list that. | 17:04 |
replaceafill | ok | 17:04 |
replaceafill | i'll add the release notes | 17:05 |
replaceafill | please try the absences by students report | 17:05 |
replaceafill | (the one with the blank dialog) | 17:06 |
replaceafill | and let me know if it works | 17:06 |
th1a | OK. | 17:07 |
*** menesis has quit IRC | 17:10 | |
th1a | OK, now the CuBox is not working at all. | 17:11 |
replaceafill | :S | 17:11 |
replaceafill | reinstall? | 17:11 |
th1a | Probably I just forgot how long it takes to reboot. | 17:11 |
th1a | Anyhow. | 17:11 |
th1a | OK< there it is. | 17:12 |
th1a | I may have a bad ethernet cable too. | 17:13 |
th1a | The CuBox has very minimal blinkenlights. | 17:14 |
th1a | Uh... ok, anything else replaceafill? | 17:14 |
replaceafill | i started with the importer change | 17:14 |
replaceafill | not done yet | 17:14 |
replaceafill | we're going to change the exporter too, correct? | 17:14 |
replaceafill | i mean, to match | 17:15 |
th1a | Oh, yes. | 17:15 |
replaceafill | th1a, http://book.schooltool.org/2.8-release-notes.html | 17:17 |
replaceafill | Gradebook 2.8.3.1 and Journal 2.8.2.1 | 17:17 |
th1a | Was there also a bug in spanish you were going to fix, or was it one of those? | 17:18 |
replaceafill | it was the one about the report card | 17:18 |
replaceafill | i already told the user to try the update | 17:19 |
th1a | ok | 17:19 |
replaceafill | https://answers.launchpad.net/schooltool/+question/258484 | 17:19 |
th1a | Oh, the guy asking about barcode integration said he couldn't afford it. | 17:23 |
replaceafill | ah | 17:23 |
th1a | Which is always a bit depressing until I remember that he had no money in the first place, so it isn't like we're losing a *sale*. | 17:23 |
replaceafill | :) | 17:23 |
th1a | OK. That's it for me. | 17:24 |
replaceafill | me 2 | 17:24 |
replaceafill | oh | 17:24 |
th1a | Going to plan my report for Mark. | 17:24 |
replaceafill | i plan to do some bug "triaging?" | 17:24 |
replaceafill | i noticed some bugs are just fixed committed | 17:24 |
replaceafill | and they've been released | 17:24 |
replaceafill | so expect some LP spam | 17:25 |
replaceafill | will also update the releases tar.gz downloads | 17:25 |
replaceafill | (i think that's important) | 17:25 |
th1a | OK. | 17:25 |
th1a | Thanks replaceafill. | 17:30 |
replaceafill | thanks th1a | 17:30 |
*** mibofra has quit IRC | 17:32 | |
replaceafill | th1a, you there? | 17:39 |
th1a | Yes. | 17:39 |
th1a | I'm trying to tweak the zodb and zeo settings to optimize it a bit more just on the micro-sd. | 17:39 |
replaceafill | can we create 2.8 series for all the projects? put current trunks on them and keep pushing things like the school page to trunk? | 17:40 |
th1a | Oh, sure. | 17:40 |
replaceafill | cool, will do | 17:41 |

*** mibofra has joined #schooltool | 17:56 | |
th1a | Ah.... | 18:39 |
th1a | replaceafill: OK, I tweaked the cache size and watched iostat, and the problem does not seem to be in IO, unfortunately. | 18:40 |
th1a | It may just be: | 18:40 |
th1a | Pystone(1.1) time for 50000 passes = 2.00108 | 18:40 |
th1a | This machine benchmarks at 24986.5 pystones/second | 18:40 |
