Update to OS Stats

Post by VijayPande »

We've taken a look at the stats script that generates the OS Stats page (http://fah-web.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/mai ... e=osstats2) and fixed some under reporting issues we've been seeing. The update script is now live. The under reporting affected CPU stats (for Win, Lin, and OSX) but not GPU stats.

I still wonder why Fermi has 3x the number of active cores than active CPU's. It should be 1:1 like the other GPU's. However, that is a relatively small issue probably not worth the time to fix unless it is indicative of some other bigger problem.

yea, I agree. We'll take a look at a later date, after some other key deadlines are met.
