Category: New Feature Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: John Cerney (cerney) >Assigned to: John Cerney (cerney) Summary: Auto Multi-Core Support Initial Comment: This patch adds support for splitting up numerical processing between multiple parallel processor threads (or pthreads) using new functions "set_autopthread_targ" and "set_autopthread_targ". This can improve processing performance (by greater than 2-4X in most cases) by taking advantage of multi-core and/or multi-processor machines. See the new file Basic/Pod/ParallelCPU.pod for details. This patch is against PDL 2.4.7 and is in git "format-patch" format ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Chris Marshall (marshallch) Date: 2011-04-30 15:56 Message: I notice that you are a registered PDL developer and so should have git access. Maybe it would make sense to apply the patch to git directly. The usual standard is to not push anything to git that does not build and pass tests on at least one platform. If there is possible instability, you could also create a branch for development until things are good for a merge back to the main trunk. --Chris ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Chris Marshall (marshallch) Date: 2011-03-24 23:12 Message: Thanks for the patch, John. We're in feature freeze for PDL-2.4.8 but I'm looking forward to applying this and trying it out post the 2.4.8 release. --Chris ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=300612&aid=3242363&group_id=612 _______________________________________________ PDL-porters mailing list PDL-porters@jach.hawaii.edu http://mailman.jach.hawaii.edu/mailman/listinfo/pdl-porters
