For old mfe.c frontends, global variable set to "do it the new way" should be okey,

 30 Nov 2020, Konstantin Olchanski, Info, more wisdom from linux kernel people
|
As you may know, I am a big fan of two software projects - the linux kernel and ROOT. The linux kernel is one of
the few software projects "done right". ROOT is where normal people try to "get it right" with real-world level
of success. I use both softwares daily and I try to apply their ways and methods to MIDAS as much as I can.

this is correct, the fevme frontend is written to do 100% CPU-busy polling.

12 Feb 2021, Konstantin Olchanski, Bug Report, mlogger history snafu
|
there is a problem with mlogger between commits xxx (17 Nov 2020) and a762bb8 (12 feb 2021). because of
confusion between seconds and milliseconds, FILE (mhf*.dat files) and SQL history are recording with
incorrect timestamps.

Clearly something goes wrong with the STARTABORT transition. Actually from your
sceenshot, it is not clear why the STARTABORT transition was initiated.
