 20 Nov 2003, Konstantin Olchanski, , midas timeout wraparound

While reviving midas on midtig01 after it was not used for a while, we see
this. Notice negative "last called" numbers. Looks like a time_t wraparound
somewhere...

I am recording here the results from a test VME system using two VF48 waveform digitizers and a 64-bit
dual-core VME processor (V7865). VF48 data suppression is off, VF48 modules set to read 48 channels,
1000 ADC samples each. mlogger data compression is enabled (gzip -1).

Note 1: data compression is about 89% (hence "data to disk" rate is much smaller than the "data from VME" rate)

Just for completeness: Attached is the VME transfer speed I get with the SIS3100/SIS1100 interface using
2eVME transfer. This curve can be explained exactly with an overhead of 125 us per DMA transfer and a
continuous link speed of 83 MB/sec. |

(I now have 4 VF48 waveform digitizers, so the event rates are half of those reported before. Date rate

Now we look at the detail of the event readout, or if you want, the real-time properties of the MIDAS

I updated the links on the midas wiki to the doxygen-generated documentation for MIDAS that you
get after running "git clone midas; cd midas; make dox; firefox html/index.html".
