N == 22 specifically? Or N >= 22? Interesting threshold value
- jhowell 8y agoWhy is 22 particularly interesting?
- arthurcolle 8y agoIt's not. The fact that it doesn't readily have any real-world significance is what makes it an 'interesting' (read: odd, curious) threshold value, which is why I asked OP whether it would only fail at that core number (N == 22) or whether it effected all processor counts higher than the value. I can see that my use of interesting was colloquial and not literal. My bad for any confusion this may have caused ;)
- dnautics 8y agoMy box has 24 cores. By default I deploy on 22. Actually it fails at 10 cores, but it gets 3/4 of the way through the dataset. At 22 it dies about 1/4 of the way, at 5 cores it makes it all the way through. Error is in a string tokenizer, which I wrote as a recursive call. Usually it's fine but I made a code change which absolutely killed it. Also I'm writing in Julia, which does not TCO, the back end stuff I do is in elixir, which does.
