| PhoenixSTF | Can someone tell me if Ubuntu One is all made out of Python? | 21:17 |
|---|---|---|
| dobey | all of it isn't. most of it is. | 21:41 |
| PhoenixSTF | including file indexing? | 21:48 |
| dobey | the file sync client is mostly python yes. | 21:53 |
| PhoenixSTF | I don't want to sound bad, but wouldn't it be faster developed under C/C++? | 21:56 |
| dobey | probably not, no | 21:57 |
| PhoenixSTF | well it drains a lot of battery life while just doing the indexing part | 21:58 |
| PhoenixSTF | not the sync it self | 21:58 |
| dobey | you mean doing local rescan? | 21:58 |
| PhoenixSTF | yes | 21:58 |
| dobey | how many files do you have synchronized to ubuntu one? | 21:59 |
| dobey | folders, and files, that is | 21:59 |
| PhoenixSTF | 2156 items, totalling 789.2 MB | 21:59 |
| PhoenixSTF | wait thats not true | 21:59 |
| dobey | they will have to be rescanned at start up, no matter what language the client is written in | 22:00 |
| PhoenixSTF | 36730 items, totalling 4.3 GB | 22:02 |
| PhoenixSTF | well I have a lot of files yes, but it sometimes gets stuck and sometimes it goes on forever and drains a lot of battery | 22:03 |
| PhoenixSTF | just wondering why it happens :) | 22:04 |
| dobey | no idea. file a bug :) | 22:04 |
| PhoenixSTF | Anyway if the rescan part is done in python or perl is much slower than C correct? | 22:05 |
| dobey | no | 22:06 |
| PhoenixSTF | no? | 22:08 |
| dobey | disk i/o is going to be just as slow in any language you do it in. there is no bottleneck in the interpreter for what that code is doing | 22:08 |
| PhoenixSTF | right, problem is, disk is not working and One it off the charts with CPU. | 22:09 |
| PhoenixSTF | *it=is | 22:09 |
| dobey | file a bug. :) | 22:11 |
| dobey | and anywya, i need to go back to my weekend | 22:12 |
| PhoenixSTF | ty :) | 22:13 |
