| + | Firstly, here can be found my official proposal. | ||

| − | + | The purpose of a package managing library ( or tool) is to pass around packages | |
| + | containing data from brlcad tools. The packages are sent via TCP and as a result | ||
| + | are using TCP header. | ||
| + | TCP -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_Control_Protocol | ||
| − | [ | + | My current knowledge is that the TCP Payload[1] has a size of 64kb, at least |
| + | in the linux kernel. There has been a reported incident where libpkg fails to send 24k+ packages. | ||
| + | [1] Payload - TCP field containinig effective data (user data, for example). | ||
| − | + | I believe this is the reported incident : http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.cad.brlcad.devel/959. | |
| + | |||
| + | Tpkg will be used for testing the package issue. | ||
| + | I am currently researching dstat and ifstat, found via | ||
| + | apt-cache search ifstat | ||
| + | dstat - versatile resource statistics tool | ||
| + | ifstat - InterFace STATistics Monitoring | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==GsoC 2012 progress== | ||
| + | |||
| + | So far I have managed to compile and install brl-cad on a 32-bit Archlinux. | ||
| + | I am focusing on the tpkg command to see what exactly happens and properly submitting the global removal patch. | ||
