Message 684332 - Posted: 25 Nov 2007, 21:32:14 UTC

This morning I got 18 WUs from the 01ja07aa.11132.13978.14.6.xxx group, all of which overflowed on Triplets in about 6 seconds. Checking the WU header parameters, I saw <triplet_thresh>2.57570577 which I believe is wrong. It should be about 5.71 for the <true_angle_range> of 12.342...

After the earlier splitter problem which caused similar issues, I calculated what the <pulse_thresh> and <triplet_thresh> values should be at various angle ranges:



For those who prefer actual numbers, there's this csv file of the same data.

I don't know whether this is the same splitter problem which led to the Splitsville Evercrunch Specials, but it could be. That occurs if the triplet threshold is reduced so much it goes negative. Someone generated a script so those with large caches of work could check for those, but I haven't located that post again. Just searching within the project folder for files containing "<triplet_thresh>-" without the quotes should be effective.

Was the point to return the filenames, or the threshholds? I would need directions for the second option, if so...

The find /I searches files (/I makes it ignore filename case), and makes it report the files that contain the searched string.
So the ones in the txt files have the <triplet_thresh>- value in them.

See Gomeyer's post here

This command will find WU with negative <triplet_thresh>.


- Any WU with a negative <triplet_thresh> will have the triplet value displayed on a line immediately below the file name. Either abort it or "fix" it with Joe's "99" trick. If there are no <triplet_thresh>'s in the text file then you are clean for now.
