The flush argument indicates how short that sliding window is. The sliding window retains knowledge (up to 32KB/frame, iirc) which allows for better compression. Different types of data have different compression ratios, depending on what is repeatable.
So the thing about partial flush is...
Zlib works with a sliding window. I've achieved 70%-80% compression rate with zlib. The one time where I have seen 20% compression is when I used zlib with constant flushing.
If you're using API calls, try out the different flush arguments. I've had some success with Z_PARTIAL_FLUSH.
I am currently using a 7850 and it is really glitchy. There is no problem when only 1 monitor is connected though. I'm not sure what the problem is as the card seems to pass every test I throw at it. I read that ASUS's RMA process is very slow, so regardless I would need something to work with...
There are users on this forum who are very knowledgeable about this kind of stuff because they are from the industry. I'd wager that they know more about this stuff than you do and yet you argue. This makes it seem that you know better, unless, of course, you're just trolling.
Whatever the...
Please do link to proof of where you see a 4+ core APU being (planned for) released by AMD. I'd like to see available facts showing the ROI, and all the facts that you have used to base your arguments from.
IIRC, AMD does provide its own compilers - it would make sense for AMD to provide the most efficient method of translating human code to machine code for their own hardware. I think the main issue here is that when applications get compiled, they are usually done with compilers provided by...
I would highly suggest you look at what compilers actually do. Compilers have, and will continue to, be an important part of (and most especially in high performance) software development. To ignore what compilers and the role it plays in gauging performance of CPUs should not be overlooked.
Modern CPU's already come with sleep states, power down, and underclock/volt when idle. If you're doing this for the sole purpose of saving power when idling, you might be better served with just turning the system off (or if money is an issue, reconsider making such a purchase completely).
I doubt that's the case. Your plain old software would benefit much more from being either rewritten or recompiled than from a slight memory speed or better topology. Very few applications out there (either free or commercially) not built for high performance will benefit from this.
I'd...
I'm not sure if you've done threading work before, but its hard (at least I find it hard). There are overheads (from both the software and hardware perspective) to consider when doing multithreaded programming as well, so more might not necessarily be better. As far as I can tell, threading...
How do you determine if a micro-arch is good or not?
I realize this is a very open-ended question and can afford simple answers such as: "it does <list of things> better than <stuff>". But that's like saying car A is better than car B because it has better MPG or better handling or stuff like...
There's more to desktop market than the consumers - I think you're leaving out the enterprise level workstations that will take a LONG time to "die". There is always a place for high performance workstations and until your mobile devices can match the performance required by the software, you...
I did not know this. If that's the case, I might have to consider getting a data plan (and it would make getting the Z10 easier, which is what I'm leaning towards at the moment).
I'll take a look at the 521. I did not really take a good look at the WP calendar app so I will be sure to do so...
Hmm, good points. I will give WP another go. Might just be my eyes being unaccustomed to the phone. I thought it was just me being stupid when I felt dizzy from using some of the phones.
I don't have data now and I can survive without it. One barrier for me to getting a data plan is what happens after I breach that cap. Paying more for services I didn't want is what makes no sense to me.
Indeed I think it is a shame I get a little dizzy with my experience so far. I'll give it another shot whenever I can again. I do like the fact that their phones are on the small-screen size.
Right now, I don't really plan on switching out of my current plan - some large number of minutes +...
I've used my current phone for 4 years and 4 years ago it was considered old. It lags for about 10 seconds when I try to load text-message conversations reaching into the 70+ count. The plan I'm on is set to expire in the second half of this year and I'm considering getting a better phone.
I...
I recently did a refresh of an old build. I bought the HD7850 and it worked well on 1 monitor. As soon as I connected the second monitor, weird blocks started appearing and flickering on both monitors. This would only seem to happen when in Windows mode. This is an example of what it would look...
