Hi Antoine,

This is really weird, the [ms] timestamp in the report.xml still moves back and 
forth, while the "YMD HMS.ms" seems correct!
Because of that transient wrong time reference, the load is increased too 
often. That's why you got 60 instead of 5.

Can you do one more try, with InitialSAPS set to an even value, or to any 
multiple of (StirSteps+1)?
Please also attach the manager.log file.
It's OK to run the manager and TS on the same computer.

Regards,
Patrice

Hi Patrice,

I've "svn co" revision 587 and killed ptpd and ntpd. 
I haven't seen anything weird when I compiled the soft (make rmtl,  ossl
and mgr as in the doc). 

The manager and the TS are the same host, so I suppose it's ok to run
the test without both ntpd and ptpd, but I had to put the MaxTimeOffset
to 0. 
I don't know if this can have an important negative impact on the test
(other than for the time in the report of course).

I've made several tests today, the results are strange. Almost all tests
end correctly (i.e. without seg fault, but the results are weird), some
test ends with a seg fault like in a previous mail.

Here are the 3 files from the latest test... In this one, the SAPS
increased more than expected and overloaded sailfin. As you can see in
the report, the requested load of the first step was 5, but the mean
value is 60!!! I don't understand why the SAPS increase so much. Gsl is
working, I think the soft uses that to generate traffic so...

Obviously there's something wrong, maybe in the way I'm using the bench,
I don't know... Is it possible it's not working as expected due to the
very low value I'm using (for initialSAPS, SAPSincreaseAmount,...)? I
suppose not but... Or because I've only a single TS running on the same
host than the manager, and without ntpd or ptpd?

Regards,

A.
