CCP Veritas, accompanied by CCP Red Button from Virtual World Operations, have a new blog out which although born from looking at graphs after the recent dev bash in Tama, paints a much bigger picture about the current state of the server and the strides we have taken in the past year to improve server performance. May 2012 bring us even further into the future! It probably will you know.
Anyway! Here's the blog, and don't forget to tell Veritas and Red Button how much you love them. CCP Guard | EVE Community Developer |

Why, I would have thought that was obvious. Hamster juice ofc

Small children ... and server lag, as I might add! CCP Phantom - German Community Coordinator |

Also, very nice Time Dilation has not yet been activated on TQ due to some issues found in late testing. Had it been on, it would have kicked in during the last fleet warpin, down to 80% of normal time or so, and then come back up to normal. CCP Veritas - Senior Programmer - EVE Software |

Kyoko Sakoda wrote:I understand it's a pretty big project to undertake, but will the server code ever be optimized for multi-core processing? Yep. There's a plan on the table for a pilot project taking an identified piece of heavy load off to a second independent thread. We need to prioritize that versus other things like client performance and other possible server gains, but there's plans at least. CCP Veritas - Senior Programmer - EVE Software |

we thought about trying to get some co-workers to drink it, saying it was Quafe Zero, but someone talked us out of it for some crazy reason (was likely for the best).
But the liquid is ThermoChill EC6 UV Blue and we had 2 independent loops. CPU was on it's own and the motherboard/ram were on the other loop.
Stats from the web:
GÇó Pre-mixed with no need for additional additives GÇó Electrical Conductivity <2-¦S/cm at 24C * GÇó Non-Toxic and RoHS CompliantGÇ¿ GÇó Freezing Point - 6C GÇó 85% Bio-degradable Within 30 DaysGÇ¿ GÇó Shelf Stable UV Reactive Dyes of up to 2 yearsGÇ¿ GÇó EC6 is a true Eco Friendly Product
Also, while we had a ton of fun building this machine, others didn't quite enjoy it as much :) Our area backs onto the the maintenance guys room and they had a few spare tables where we could setup for the build. And even though they're no strangers to loud noise this thing was another level all together!
We had 6 insanely loud fans pulling air in/across the dual 320mm rads and had it running benchmarks for days. Before long we started to fear they would sabotage the project in order to protect their hearing/sanity :)
(Each of the fans put out over 200 CFM @ 6000 RPM and over 60 dB) |
