raptop changed the topic of #principia to: READ THE FAQ: http://goo.gl/gMZF9H; The current version is Fréchet. We currently target 1.5.1, 1.6.1, and 1.7.x. <scott_manley> anyone that doubts the wisdom of retrograde bop needs to get the hell out | https://xkcd.com/323/ | <egg> calculating the influence of lamont on Pluto is a bit silly… | <egg> also 4e16 m * 2^-52 is uncomfortably large
<discord-> M​yshiko. — Speaking about lag(s), I wonder, does Principia scale well with number of cores? Or it bottlenecks at 1 core?
<discord-> M​yshiko. — Assume 1000 vessels in orbit for the above question.
<discord-> D​RVeyl. — Can egg assume you're shipping him a pony, also?
<discord-> M​yshiko. — Yes. I can ship a pony
<discord-> w​aptdragon3. — unless ships and asteroids have gravity and can affect eachother, i would think it would be threaded and can use more than 1 core
<discord-> M​yshiko. — That’s the spirit of the question, how does it work in reality, and whether 64 core Amd helps at all
<discord-> M​yshiko. — (You know, 64 cores is nice, but does it help with anything important)
<UmbralRaptor> It means that if you have enough ram, you can run ~20-30 instances of ksp without any slowdowns

<discord-> S​ir Mortimer. — @waptdragon3 you would be wrong. In fact there’s a whole paragraph on the subject in the FAQ
<discord-> w​aptdragon3. — that's nice to know. i just guessing

<egg|cell|egg> Yes if you have many vessels they will be spread across cores
<egg|cell|egg> So yes having 64 cores should help
<discord-> e​gg. — Cc @waptdragon3, @Sir Mortimer, @Myshiko ↑
<discord-> e​gg. — That FAQ entry is a bit misleading; we can't parallelize force evaluation, but independent integrations are done
<discord-> e​gg. — That FAQ entry is a bit misleading; we can't parallelize force evaluation, but independent integrations are already done in parallel (edited)
<discord-> S​ir Mortimer. — interesting
<discord-> M​yshiko. — Awesome.

<awang> egg: Do you still build Principia on Linux?
<awang> If so, what distro(s)?

<discord-> l​amont. — it mostly shouldn't matter which distro as long as KSP runs on it
<discord-> l​amont. — and as long as it fires up it probably works. the likely failure would be too old of libstdc++ or something like that which would cause unresolved symbols.
