Hi, I just bootstrapped the latest factor version and put my computer to sleep in the middle of it for about 20 minutes. The bootstrapping times were : Bootstrap completed in 8 minutes and 1 seconds. -- didn't sleep Bootstrap completed in 8 minutes and 28 seconds. -- slept 20 min
this is on linux x86.32 cheers, On Thu, Nov 19, 2009 at 10:10 AM, Doug Coleman <doug.cole...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I moved the monotonic counter code to the VM and adapted the threads > vocabulary to use it.
