A wee bit of analysis

Looking at the data has provided me a world of insight into what my network is really doing:

  • Even though the computers are supposed to be ticking every .1s, and hence writing data out, some computers are only ticking every .5s, implying that the work required in the algorithm takes longer than 100ms (this is surprising... those computers must be rather slow). This means I should at least run with -O3 optimized versions, rather than my current -O0 unoptimized builds. If this is still a problem, I need to work on improving the efficiency of the code.
