Resource usage note

Pete Jalajas — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 15:02:13 -0000

Just an informational note.

Running r684 on HP Mini with Windows XP

Per Windows Task Manager (I'm not sure what most of those numbers mean):

Mem Usage started at about 15MB then went up to about 19.5MB (I thinkafter running some functions).
Peak Mem Usage 20.2MB, 22K Pagefaults, 109K paged pool, 6K NP Pool, 146 handles, 3 threads.
CPU never got over 10% during several small Backups and Compares.

After about an hour or so:
40 seconds of CPU usage, 20.4MB Mem Usage, 21.1MB Peak Mem Usage, 24.7K Page Faults, 114K Paged Pool, 7K NP Pool, 171 handles, 3 Threads.

MinimumFileAge note

Pete Jalajas — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 13:18:59 -0000

Just a note to make it clear that the initial run of boxi (and I presume boxbackup) does not backup files less than MinimumFileAge (in units of seconds) old.

I installed boxi late one night to test it, and then tried to back up that new boxi directory, but only my old key files that I had placed in that directory were backed up right away. Compare kept reporting that fact, but I, in my ignorance, was surprised and thought I hit a bug. When I launched boxi the next morning, the boxi program files backed up fine.

R684 sha1s, for the record

This isn't a Support Request; I wish there was a simple "Notes" tracker.

sha1s for the record, R684, obtained via
gpg.exe --print-md sha1 *
Also available on Achim's website (except for .zip sha1, I think).
