07:56 mircea_popescu fifa should probably just convict "us prosecutors" for fraud etc.
07:57 BingoBoingo Basketball and Hockey were US tamed pretty readily, but the last couple years European teams started doing a bunch of exhibition games in the US and selling out so Nike and Gatorade had to call their congressmen
07:57 mircea_popescu lol
07:57 BingoBoingo Because OMG Serbia Vs. Croatia sold 45,000 tickets in a third tier midwestern city for and exhibition game
07:59 mircea_popescu that said, a bunch of these twerps were pretty rotten. jack warner being a fine example
07:59 mircea_popescu of course he got kicked out years ago, but whatevs.

09:39 gabriel_laddel Oh that would make a lovely hentai. Breaking the 4th wall pixellation of privates.
09:40 pete_dushenski one wonders what it'll take to break the pixelation wall
09:41 pete_dushenski fukushima... wasn't enough.
09:41 pete_dushenski i can see the idiots giving up on their idiocy after a good chinese butt pumping.
09:42 gabriel_laddel JP is weird. I don't know that they're censoring it because they find it "offensive"
09:42 gabriel_laddel did you see the signs telling schoolchildren to "beware the chikan"?
09:43 gabriel_laddel BAD (#bitcoin-assets distro) update #3. Install works (writing this from a machine formatted in the past 24hrs) and is a massive PITA.

09:45 pete_dushenski asciilifeform clearly a horsewhip
09:47 pete_dushenski gabriel_laddel it looks effective to me. at least as much as any fuzzy rat puppet (in canada) telling kids not to trust strangers
09:48 gabriel_laddel pete_dushenski: ah, but the weird bit is that this is (according to asa akira) the *most common* offense in JP, and happens to a huge percentage of the population.
09:49 gabriel_laddel So, they put up signs warning schoolgirls about being molested on the packed trains, but never put any effort into... putting personal space on the trains or the like.
09:50 asciilifeform gabriel_laddel: they did proclaim female-only train cars iirc
09:50 pete_dushenski gabriel_laddel how does one insert personal space onto an small mountainous island ?

10:28 pete_dushenski "In a fifth floor office just off Zurich's main shopping street, researchers at UBS (UBSG.VX) are testing dozens of technologies to see what could make the world's biggest wealth manager more appealing as fortunes pass to the next generation."
10:28 pete_dushenski ""How do you get under the skin of clients today, because they often work on their mobiles and they manage their wealth in their spare time," said Dave Bruno, head of UBS's innovation lab. "It might be in the bathroom, it might be waiting for a flight.""
10:28 pete_dushenski "Bruno and his team are designing video games, including a prototype puzzle for iPads and smartphones, and looking at virtual reality simulations to help people visualise what are often complex investment portfolios."
10:28 pete_dushenski "They are also working on technologies that allow clients to log into their accounts using their voice patterns and facial features, doing away with the time consuming and frustrating need to answer security questions."

10:32 pete_dushenski i've never seen so many beautifully preserved copies of literature, philosophy, history, biology, you name it. in german, french, latin, english too
10:32 pete_dushenski i saw one such bookstore in manhattan a couple years back, complete with $30,000 copy of le petite prince, but that was just one shop.

15:46 asciilifeform not related
15:46 asciilifeform or rather, not directly

20:18 mod6 think I should stop and compile that in as well?
20:18 asciilifeform no hurry
20:18 mod6 well, was going to launch this for a full sync test.
20:18 mod6 nice tho!!
20:19 asciilifeform (goes without saying that you need igprof on your box for this to work)
20:19 * ben_vulpes dreams of a box beefy enough to run sync tests for every patch submitted
20:19 mod6 i've never used it. im guessing i can just compile/install via 3rd party package?
20:19 asciilifeform mod6: aha
20:19 mod6 ok.
20:19 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: your hardware is not the limiting reactant here

20:21 asciilifeform 2nd one is some dark magic, only serious sappers need apply

20:22 asciilifeform mod6: i have never seen, smelled, touched - either.

20:22 mod6 oh, just looking for a version of IgProf to grab... maybe im looking at the wrong thing.
20:22 asciilifeform http://igprof.org
20:23 mod6 yeah, thats where i am, i just wasnt on the DL page, nm.
20:29 asciilifeform btw, after dumping a heap profile snapshot,
20:29 asciilifeform igprof-analyse -d -v -g -r MEM_TOTAL heap1 > heap1.txt
20:29 asciilifeform and so forth
20:29 asciilifeform gives the plain text output
20:30 asciilifeform (just like many other profilers, this one craps out somewhat terse encoded transcript by default)
20:31 asciilifeform this gives MEM_TOTAL (how much churned)
20:31 asciilifeform other options (e.g., MEM_LIVE) described in manual.
20:32 mod6 ok i'll come back to that, it's like a whole process to build that thing.
20:32 asciilifeform http://igprof.org/analysis.html
20:33 asciilifeform 'MEM_LIVE records the “live” memory – memory that hasn’t been freed. If the profile statistics file you are processing came from the end of the application’s run, this will be the memory leaked by the job. If the profile statistics file was triggered during the running of the job, it is a snapshot of the heap, i.e. a heap profile.

20:41 mod6 very cool
20:42 asciilifeform also the thing appears to have better coverage of dynamic libs

21:08 * asciilifeform now can only write in the worst possible print
21:09 asciilifeform interestingly, the longer i go without writing by hand, the more this part of brain rots
21:09 asciilifeform i even found myself, as of 4-5 yrs ago, often writing the 2nd letter of a word first

Kent (now chief scientist and vice president at BBN, and a chief advisor to NSA) and I lost was our strong argument to put mandatory end-to-end encryption into TCP (and adaptations of the ideas to UDP-based protocols, such as RTP, hich I worked out but abandoned).

21:46 decimation by my eye, it looks to me that ThreadMessageHandler(void*) is a turd
21:46 mod6 thx decimation
21:50 mod6 have you looked at ThreadMessageHandler2 ?
21:51 mod6 wait, these are not just bytes allocated during calls, these are LEAKED BYTES?!
21:52 decimation actually CBlock::AddToBlockIndex(unsigned int, unsigned int) [10]
21:52 decimation yes
21:53 mod6 lolol that's horrendus. ProcessBlock leaked 26`847`114 bytes over 346`507 calls?!
21:54 decimation yes but noted that the leaks were all in its children
21:54 mod6 asciilifeform: how long (how many blocks) was bitcoind sync'ing while you took this sample?
21:54 decimation if you follow that trail you find it's AddToBlockIndex
21:54 mod6 ahh. ok
21:54 * mod6 looks
21:56 mod6 asciilifeform: oh nm, 115500, didn't see that in the URL

21:59 mod6 !up ascii_modem
22:00 ascii_modem nonono not leaks
22:00 ascii_modem plz read manual
22:00 mod6 aight, me goes back to it.
22:00 ascii_modem there are no leaks in the usual sense
22:00 ascii_modem the flat graph from mod6 tells us this
22:00 ascii_modem thinkaboutit
22:01 ascii_modem as for the memlimit thing, it has to do with bdb only!
22:01 ascii_modem and 256m is insane, we only have 128 total
22:02 mod6 ah, ok, couldn't remember the amt.
22:02 ascii_modem db should't get more than 4 or at most 8
22:02 mod6 and yea, just for db.
22:02 mod6 ok
22:02 * mod6 reads
22:03 ascii_modem and - plz remember how to read profilers - the 'turd' is merely the procedure that is at the root of call graph tree
22:03 ascii_modem so naturally will appear 'heavy' because 'all roads lead to rome'
22:03 mod6 yah, werd.

22:10 decimation asciilifeform: all roads lead to home, yes, but home is a good place to start examining each potential pathway
22:14 decimation mod6: so you did a graph of vmstat calls? Is that what ascii is talking about?
22:23 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 28472 @ 0.00031217 = 8.8881 BTC [+]
22:28 mod6 decimation: ah, no. graphs are from nmon. there is a document that goes along with all of that. it's in the mailing list and in the http://thebitcoin.foundation/test/perf/ root
22:29 mod6 http://thebitcoin.foundation/test/perf/nmon_tests_201505.txt
22:30 decimation so the goal here is to reduce memory use, not to find leaks?
22:30 mod6 is that directed at me with my perf tests? or at asciilifeform?
22:30 decimation I guess at ascii, why he bothered with igprof
22:31 decimation presumably the 'leaks' were found by igprof because he killed it after running a certain time, so memory wasn't freed?
22:31 mod6 yeah, im not even sure what i'm looking at anymore with that igprof stuff yet.
22:31 mod6 i was just getting started reading and got pulled away for a minute.
22:31 mod6 but as far as the nmon tests, I wanted to system level profile the entire sync process -- get some visuals, see what we're looking at as far as overall system usage, etc.
22:32 decimation it defintely thinks those areas are leaks, but that might be because of how it was killed, not because it was actually leaked (in the sense of the pointer was lost)
22:32 mod6 yeah, im not sure. i need to read more there.
22:32 decimation I see what ascii means about the flat graph (memory.png on the orphanage thermonuke)
22:33 mod6 in addition to the valgrind tests that ascii did earlier this month, i was going to dig into some of that myself in june.
22:33 mod6 and now, maybe learn the ropes on igprof.

22:34 mod6 <+decimation> I see what ascii means about the flat graph (memory.png on the orphanage thermonuke) << ahh
22:35 asciilifeform decimation: where do you see leaks ?
22:35 asciilifeform and i will add, nothing was killed, that thing is running even now, without interruption
22:36 decimation the igprof documentation says that the report shows memory leaks
22:36 asciilifeform decimation: all i noticed is the same 'pocket change' leaks as valgrind shows
22:37 decimation "MEM_LIVE records the ?live? memory ? memory that hasn?t been freed. If the profile statistics file you are processing came from the end of the application?s run, this will be the memory leaked by the job. If the profile statistics file was triggered during the running of the job, it is a snapshot of the heap, i.e. a heap profile. The statistic is accurate (not statistical) and records the number of bytes allocated and the number of c
22:37 mod6 so the docs say, "MEM_LIVE records the ``live'' memory -- memory that hasn't been freed. If the profile statistics file you are processing came from the end
22:37 mod6 haha. was just typing that out ^^
22:37 asciilifeform well no shit it wasn't freed
22:37 asciilifeform it is in use !
22:37 asciilifeform as in, actually alive
22:37 decimation ah so it wasn't killed, that makes sense
22:37 asciilifeform this is not valgrind! it does not need the process to terminate.
22:37 mod6 cool.
22:37 * mod6 goes back to reading
22:38 decimation asciilifeform: so is your goal to trim out all the 'inactive' memory use?
22:38 decimation so that it fits more comfortably in the pogo?
22:38 asciilifeform decimation: my goal is to get it to sit down in 120M or so.
22:38 asciilifeform whatever it takes.
22:39 asciilifeform there is no acceptable reason for the thing not to go in this very generous box.
22:39 asciilifeform in fact, i want it in 32M.
22:39 decimation heh. you realize this means you are gonna probably have to discard all the C++ shit
22:39 asciilifeform decimation: aaaaand without any major rewrite.
22:40 asciilifeform just by taking every piece of retarded cruft and shooting it in the head.
22:40 decimation yeah there's tons of cruft in there, no doubt
22:40 asciilifeform every piece of 'orphan' nonsense, where thing works 100% as well with it gone
22:40 asciilifeform every kind of cache
22:40 asciilifeform every idiot dependency that just adds retardation (e.g., dns)
22:41 decimation resolving the fixed hostnames?
22:41 asciilifeform every piece of shit that gets stored & kept around for no reason
22:41 asciilifeform fuck the fixed hostnames
22:41 asciilifeform didn't i kill those already ?
22:42 decimation I'm not sure, I need to get back on the patch train
22:43 mod6 <+ascii_modem> nonono not leaks << ok i see, so with -mp in the MEM_LIVE output we're just seeing a live heap. not leaks as the other doc page said.
22:43 mod6 <+ascii_modem> there are no leaks in the usual sense <+ascii_modem> the flat graph from mod6 tells us this << right

22:45 asciilifeform rather, extra 1

22:46 asciilifeform where the hell did -these- go ?
22:46 asciilifeform this is -exactly- my complaint with valgrind.

22:48 asciilifeform http://www.loper-os.org/pub/1172660_mem_max.txt
22:49 asciilifeform yes, it's a typo
22:49 mod6 OH, i didn't actually need to take the extranious '1' out. gotcha
22:49 asciilifeform i'd fix it, but these links are not intended as permanent
22:49 asciilifeform i want everybody to try this at home.
22:50 decimation asciilifeform: your complaint is that valgrind doesn't catch all the memory use?
22:50 asciilifeform aha
22:50 asciilifeform trivially verified with pmap
22:52 asciilifeform let's put it another way:
22:52 asciilifeform there is absolutely no reason for bitcoind to ever use more than at most a few MB more than when it first boots.
22:53 asciilifeform is there even any reason ever to keep more than one or two (second being, one that is in the process of load/verify) blocks in ram at one time
22:54 decimation asciilifeform: it appears a big chunk of the memory in use is tied up in the CBlockIndex class
22:55 asciilifeform decimation: that might be the bdb cache
22:55 asciilifeform (see earlier link)
22:55 asciilifeform it does -not- appear to grow significantly as the thing runs

23:17 asciilifeform none of it is hard.

23:17 asciilifeform that is how you get shitgnomatrons in the first place

23:18 mircea_popescu lol "dark market coupons"
23:18 asciilifeform if, -after we nuke all of the powerranger cruft- - we end up having to go there - then we go there.
23:18 asciilifeform not before.
23:19 mod6 makes sense.
23:20 mircea_popescu cazalla i think she has a point actually. deed the pages, that's proof enough. and as the derps probably don't know (or don't know they should know), we might even catch a diddled page. maybe.
23:21 mircea_popescu asciilifeform "as far as we know" tm, there's no effect.
23:23 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: re: which ?
23:24 mircea_popescu the berkley db mem allocation
23:25 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: i get a ballooning all the way to ~23M during first few hours of runtime, where it stays (based on pmap data)
23:25 asciilifeform just for bdb
23:25 mircea_popescu i think it pre-allocates locks or something
23:26 asciilifeform according to docs, this is not a hard necessity.
23:26 mircea_popescu well no, just how it does it
23:27 asciilifeform there is a hard-ram-bound option, presently unused, and entirely separate from the locks constant. see link in log.

23:43 mircea_popescu used to be too late.
23:43 asciilifeform i have the dead tree
23:43 asciilifeform (one nice thing about dead trees is that they cannot be doctored remotely)
23:44 asciilifeform 'the great soviet encyclopaedia' and the 'corrections' mailed to owners, complete with razor for slicing out 'unpersons', notwithstanding
23:45 asciilifeform (btw it was a very spiffy encyclopaedia and unjustly gets shat on today)
23:46 asciilifeform incidentally, it would be a mistake to conclude that nsa was specifically raging against rsa and only it
23:46 asciilifeform but more broadly against crypto research outside of the castle walls, as a class
23:47 BingoBoingo Well, CPU time used to be expensive for kleptocrats too
23:47 asciilifeform in late '80s - early '90s, laughably weak symmetric crypto (even rotor machines !) were still in use worldwide, for instance
23:48 asciilifeform a great many ciphertrons sold by nato cocksucker nations (western europe) were actually electronicized versions of 'enigma'-style rotors
23:49 decimation asciilifeform: your definition of 'memory leak' seems to be narrower than common parlance
23:49 asciilifeform decimation: common parlance, as always, is uselessly broad
23:50 decimation yes, point taken. but what do you call memory that might be a leak, or might not?
23:50 asciilifeform decimation: you call it 'i need to instrument the thing in real time and find out'
23:50 asciilifeform alternatively 'i need to fit the code in head'
23:51 asciilifeform the latter is the only reasonable goal, and the only reasonable purpose of the former is to advance it
23:53 decimation asciilifeform: http://www.theamphour.com/247-an-interview-with-voja-antonic-gerontogenous-galaksija-genesis/ < that podcast is an interview with voja antonic, who invented an 8-bit 'home computer' that was published in a magazine in yugoslavia
23:54 asciilifeform decimation: i think every sovblok pesthole had at least two dozen homebrew published z80 things
23:54 asciilifeform (on top of the mass-produced sinclair clones)
23:54 decimation in it, he says that he feels that code that is compiled and assembled from a higher level language (higher than assembly) isn't 'his'
23:54 decimation asciilifeform: yeah I think in this case it was a z80 clone
23:55 decimation apparently in the yugoslav case it was because it was illegal to buy a foreign device above a certain dollar value - but you could buy the parts and assemble yourself
23:56 asciilifeform they had genuine z80 !?
23:56 asciilifeform bought with dollars ?!
23:56 decimation now, thinking about what the assembly from (say bitcoind) would look like - our slavic human assembler would think that whoever wrote the code was afflicted with a case of 'word salad' madness
23:56 decimation asciilifeform: I think he said he bought with marks
23:57 decimation and yes, apparently parts were available
23:57 asciilifeform decimation: reading disasm of cpp crapolade is a misery
23:57 * asciilifeform does it regularly, does not relish
23:57 decimation right, so 'fits in head' fails in all languages higher than assembly, on the c machine
23:58 decimation because it's the bedrock yo
23:58 asciilifeform decimation has a point in that even a very trivial cpp proggy can have very peculiar manifest behaviour
23:58 asciilifeform even aside from cryptozoological animals like gcc errata
23:59 decimation right, the 'value' of c++ is that you can 'forget' about the crap like 'malloc' 'free' etc
23:59 decimation but these are precisely what you want to 'fit in head'
