A work whine
Oct. 14th, 2005 05:04 pmWeh. You know what sucks? Spending all week looking at an obscure multithready performance bug, that's what sucks. I suppose it's good that I now have a better understanding of the heap (there's one perprocess) and stacks (there's one per thread). I've also learned that you don't REALLY know for shit about your thread situation until you're running on a multi-CPU machine. But I don't know what is being synchronized on and thus ruining our scalability... no idea. :(
And yes! I would like some cheese with this. Goddamn it.
(I'm glad it's the weekend, by the way. I get to write a story about a transgression, for the writing class, but I found out this was the assignment only after I triple-promised myself to write a clean story this time. So I was like "Transgression! Woohoo, SEX WITH DEAD PEOPLE no wait I said I wouldn't do that." Ohhhhh well.)

I wrote a story about a person with OCD who, in an emergency, goes through a doorway without the proper ritual... it was a bitch of a story to write, but I wanted something with positive external consequences and negative internal ones (and clean). Next week I'm allowed to go back to expressing my usual perverted self.
