I do have a habit of thinking up concepts/RL solutions that don't exist (normally products) yet. Now if Only I'd remember to patent them! >.< Then again, I do 'try' to make it come across that it's a fuzzy remembrance instead of solid fact unless I can verify otherwise.

And this is why I don't mind being corrected (because I know human memory can falter). This is probably what I was grasping for. I know there was a thing where you'd place something and you could just keep going without searching. Now if only moving from one room to the next would stop changing your spot in the item listing. I know it used to before as well, but now that the rooms aren't typed, it's kind of annoying as I find the right angle to view from.

Life Philosophy for a long time now: "Expect nothing from anyone and everything you get is a gift."

This was my thought as I thought it was dif based TBH. I "think" I've seen as many as say 1:10-15 standard NPCs. I know one mish had like 5+, but it was laden with counsel. Found this, it has numbers.

Well when half the server is dry-humping Ms. Liberty...things start to tilt for sure. If they'd be kind enough to lose the pets and AoEs, then I'd bet that'd have an impact, but overall there's just so many people. AP often has 5 instances compared to like 2-3 for the other zones.

Yeah, I remember (FF?) back in OG where snipers were just as bad in general as Qs have always been for squids. You'd be flying a Little too close to a building and BAM, down to the city streets you go.

I wish this could be done with the base items in such a way that they could retain the same sorting as the editor.

Yeah...I'm pretty good at taxing people/things. O:) :p

So...mostly because I'm good at stressing anything out in life, I've pulled out 3 more drives to clone the data to and see if I can run more instances off of. I think I'm up to nearly 20 right now. All procs are set to real-time and the load is only 60Mb/instance. It's a good thing my RGB fans have a simple control switch to cycle the lights off. 😋

So, about that Error folder...it's putting some of the WARCs in there. Are they supposed to be or can we get rid of them? I'm at like 2Gb worth in the one folder alone. Also, What's everybody's folder down to? I'm at 608Gb left.

Look JUST below the text field in the reply box. ;)

Did I JUST now realize we can attach files? This is from my first folder: /second file is too big Errors.log

From the looks of it, there aren't a ton of errors, just lots of repeat errors. In the one file, the two examples above are repeated many times. So really, just two errors and the one is because of the max connection limit. Just checked the other log and it's basically the same two errors.

That just means you're trying too hard and need to let us catch up. ;) That and we're overloading PK's server. :p

This is from the Other folder, again...multiple times: 7/1/2019 9:44:30 PM | System.FormatException: Input string was not in a correct format. at System.Number.StringToNumber(String str, NumberStyles options, NumberBuffer& number, NumberFormatInfo info, Boolean parseDecimal) at System.Number.ParseInt32(String s, NumberStyles style, NumberFormatInfo info) at System.Int32.Parse(String s) at CoH_Forums_Parser.Program.FindUsersInThread(Int32 threadID, String content) in C:\Projects\CoH Forums Parser\CoH Forums Parser\Program.cs:line 412 at CoH_Forums_Parser.Program.AddThread(String URL, Nullable`1 date, StringBuilder content) in C:\Projects\CoH Forums Parser\CoH Forums Parser\Program.cs:line 398 at CoH_Forums_Parser.Program.ProcessContent(String URL, Nullable`1 date, StringBuilder content) in C:\Projects\CoH Forums Parser\CoH Forums Parser\Program.cs:line 280 at CoH_Forums_Parser.Program.Main(String[] args) in C:\Projects\CoH Forums Parser\CoH Forums Parser\Program.cs:line 182

I'll try, it's a couple hundred Kb Nope :p "The following error or errors occurred while posting this message: The message exceeds the maximum allowed length (20000 characters)."

I don't think you want the whole log (it's not short and probably won't fit), but this is what's at the end multiple times. 7/1/2019 9:36:57 PM | System.Exception: Failed to connect to server over three times in a row.

That line about file loop error, That's what I was seeing when trying to startup the 15th instance. In your Else statement

Well that's an interesting error. I decided to up the number of instances per drive to 10, but had to stop at 4 on the 2nd drive because I was getting some sort of "end of loop" error. I retried a couple times and kept getting the same error.

So how is everyone so far ahead of me on the chart? Or are you guys a bunch of low-end-fruit cheaters? :p

Pretty sure there's a GPU thread or five on here talking about this. One is even a red letter thread I believe.

Did we not have this at one time REALLY early on?

Got home to find the sparser had been updated and it caused a version failure error, so both threads were shut down. I cloned the archive to a second drive and I'm running a thread per drive since they're mechanical.

Yeah, I'm really not sure what I was even looking for. I'm still not sure what the parser is doing per say, but it seems the 700+Gb has gone down a bit, so I'm guessing it's stripping stuff away, reporting whatever you're looking for, and then deleting the processed file. I tried running the app twice in the same folder, but that gave an error which likely sums up to it not wanting to run a 2nd instance. So instead I went and changed the apps Priority to Realtime. That added about 20% to the memory usage, a tad bit of CPU time, and sped up the scrolling a bit. Any general guess as to how long this will take to process now that there's like 6 of us and somebody's already munched a ton? Overall it looks like we've knocked out like <3k files of <19k.

IDK why, but I was expecting a UI of sorts instead of just a cmd window. So I just pointed it at the folder where all the files were and left it be. How long will That take? :p
