We're making final push to get CarbonIO ready for the client on Singularity and we'd like your help. Anything you can think of to stress the network would be good, some examples:

  • Spamming through the agent finder (button just above the agent list in the station interface) to load lots of portraits at once
  • Spamming local with a link to this thread (spreads the word and stresses chat!)
  • Repeatedly connecting/disconnecting from Eve Voice

If you experience any problems, please submit a bug report including the crash dump if you had a crash, using the prefix "CarbonIO" in the bug title. It would really help if you could run logserver and submit the logs as part of your bug report.

I removed all the filters on agents and then clicked the next button as fast as I could.
Subjectively, TQ seems to be able to keep up slightly better than SiSi in loading the pics. Nothing majorly differrent tho.

I also tried spamming local in 6-C but ppl are not picking up on it I guess, also only 44 in local, so mass testing might help more.

All in all: no crashes. Is that the only effect you are looking for at the moment?

Thanks for the help Vestor Cool We're not expecting any of these suggested tests to cause a crash, we'd just like people to be aware that if something happens it might be related to CarbonIO.

Mostly crashes, yes. Hangs (needing to reconnect to continue, for example) would also be good to know about.

Especially stress anything that would require lots of transactions, loads of missiles, lots of searching, avatar-image loading etc etc.

Essentially this is the point at which everything is being turned on end-to-end, hopefully you shouldn't see or feel any difference, since the real savings is on the server-side and that's been deployed for months. This is a functional upgrade that will allow some pretty important optimizations to happen.

correct me if im wrong, but wasnt stackless io already an improvement? not complaining, im just wondering if im remembering my eve history properly. and while im here, once tihs testing is complete, will the cq and tidi build be restored, or will a completely different build deployed? im asking because im wondering if its worth copying my current sisi folder to a seperate location before updating to the current build from tq as i have a datacap and would rather not have to redownload all the cq data again to resume testing it once it is restored

edit: keep up the great work, less lag is always good!

From Habakuk's thread about the current build on Sisi:

Quote:

When will see the new features again? This is not yet finally decided, but probably (on Singularity) not before CarbonIO is released successfully to TQ. It is also possible that we will use Duality for these features, for example for a Time Dilation mass-test - but this will be announced later.
