I closed everything down to make sure the core was being used as little as possible. It didn't make a difference in the counts or the variance I reported earlier. I guess its not important, but it sure is curious. I think it means the engine is busy with something most of the time, and once in a while it is less busy?.
my numbers seem unusual compared to what you reported. :/ When I build a standalone, its the same kind of variance, just slower ....haha, My numbers look like this. 3122 3155 6405 3157 6404 3206 3203 3158 3246 3201 3190 3205 3202 6391 3135 6259 3144 3192 3201 3201 3201 6348 3193 6305 3200 3199 3204 3201 3283 6994 3582 7049 On Wed, Apr 7, 2021 at 12:34 PM Ralph DiMola via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > I scanned the results after it was done and got this: > > Max==>3959 > > Min==>1015 > > Ralph DiMola > IT Director > Evergreen Information Services > rdim...@evergreeninfo.net > > > -----Original Message----- > From: use-livecode [mailto:use-livecode-boun...@lists.runrev.com] On > Behalf > Of Tom Glod via use-livecode > Sent: Wednesday, April 07, 2021 12:03 PM > To: How to use LiveCode > Cc: Tom Glod > Subject: Checking the Milliseconds > > Hey peeps, > > I wanted to measure how many times the LC engine can check the milliseconds > count during each millisecond that passes. > > The results really surprised me, I thought it would be less, but I don't > know why really. > > Anyone want to take a guess? > > What is strange about my results, is that every few milliseconds the amount > of millisecond queries that occurs ...... doubles. > > Why does this happen I wonder? > > Can someone double check if that happens on your CPU?
