Coding Solvency Simulator, Maxing out with jdk1.3?

Am using java to develop a Social Security Solvency Simulator for public use on my Common Sense on Social Security website. It appears to me that the tools I'm using are now maxed out by the code I've written. Simple System.out instructions don't execute. I am using JCreator as my development tool, and jdk1.3 as my java platform. I have a 333 MHz CPU and 160 MB of RAM, running Windows 98. My 18 .class files add up to 210 KB, which doesn't seem like a lot, but I do create about 160 somewhat complex Cohort objects in order to track the possible effects of Personal Retirement Accounts. Should I switch from JCreator? Upgrade to a more powerful Java platform? Add RAM? Any suggestions?

i looked at the page in both netscrape and ieeee and had no problems. my system is a pIII 733 with 512mb ram but....
i think your problem(s) have other causes than this.
1) your not printing out system messages... ummmmmm.. yes you are
here are some sample messages from ie
ssData: Cum PRA Taxes, aggregate, = $0
ssData: Cum PRA Taxes, aggregate, = $0
CohortMgr: Cum PRA Taxes Paid = $0
ssData: Cum PRA Taxes, aggregate, = $0
CohortMgr: Cum PRA Taxes Paid = $0
and here is from netscrape
ssData: Cum PRA Taxes, aggregate, = $0
ssData: Cum PRA Taxes, aggregate, = $0
CohortMgr: Cum PRA Taxes Paid = $0
ssData: Cum PRA Taxes, aggregate, = $0
CohortMgr: Cum PRA Taxes Paid = $0
ssData: Cum PRA Taxes, aggregate, = $0
CohortMgr: Cum PRA Taxes Paid = $0
ssData: Cum PRA Taxes, aggregate, = $0
CohortMgr: Cum PRA Taxes Paid = $0
ssData: Cum PRA Taxes, aggregate, = $0
CohortMgr: Cum PRA Taxes Paid = $0
ssData: Cum PRA Taxes, aggregate, = $0
CohortMgr: Cum PRA Taxes Paid = $0
ssData: Cum PRA Taxes, aggregate, = $0
CohortMgr: Cum PRA Taxes Paid = $0
ssData: Cum PRA Taxes, aggregate, = $0
CohortMgr: Cum PRA Taxes Paid = $0
Decisions3: targetBenefitChoiceZF = 0.94
Year for retiring at 66 = 2008
year for retiring at 67 = 2025
year for retiring at 68 = -1
year for retiring at 69 = -1
Year for retiring at 70 = -1
ssData: Cum PRA Taxes, aggregate, = $0
CohortMgr: Cum PRA Taxes Paid = $0
in both cases you have to access the java console in the application to see these. you may already know this but since i can see stuff and you say you can't i wonder if this isn't the problem.
2) you are complaining sort of about performance. i would definitely throw all your class files into one big jar. right now you are causing the browser to download all the files it needs on an individual basis... this is very slow.. put it all in one archive file and this will go faster
here is the big explanation of why...
all files 40 (wild guess here)
in 40 files (200k) vs 1 jar file(210k)
download time over 56k modem connection speed of about 5.3k
200k + (40 files X 2k HTTP overhead each file) = 280k
total download time 52.8 seconds
or...
210k + (1 file X 2k HTTP overhead each file) = 212k
total download time 40 seconds
as you can see this is quite a difference especially as my assumptions are biased against the jar file. namely the http overhead is low and we assumed NO compression for the jar file.
for more information on jar'ing stuff try here http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/Books/JAR/
well i hope this is all helpful

Volume Maxes out with headset

I can't record voice memos using the headset mic without the volume maxing out. I'm using the stock mic. Any ideas how to fix this?

You can try to remove and recreate the ALSA state file.
Maybe the permissions of /var/lib/alsa/asound.state are wrong.
See this Arch wiki article for reference.
You should also check the journal of the alsa-store systemd service for errors:
journalctl -u alsa-store.service

CPU maxing out with Google Image search, some other websites

When I try to use Google Image search or load SBNation website articles, Firefox's CPU usage maxes out and it becomes unresponsive for a good 10 seconds before it has loaded everything. This is a new problem that has popped up within the last few weeks.
I've tried disabling all addons and plugins, removing cookies, clearing cache, downgrading from the beta version to 23 and none seem to make any difference.

Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
* [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
* [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Track levels automatically max out with midi devices since update

Hello,
Since the last mountain lion update, I've had problems with USB midi inputs via USB on my 2011 MacBook air. Specifically, the volume level on each track will automatically go to the max volume setting and cannot be adjusted if I plug in a midi device.
So if I have one track that is a midi keyboard and another track that is a guitar, the tracks will allow me to play at the volume I set for a few seconds, then the track volume slider will go to max on its own.
Once I unplug the midi device, the track volume goes back to normal.

Hi DaniBCN
What versions of software are you using? LabVIEW 8 but what about NI-VISA? . You can download the lastest versions from ww.ni.com/downloads.
What scope are you using? What bus (GPIB, ENET, USB)? Here is a great resource to comunicate with tek scopes
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/websearch/202E14463D2D819F86256C39005D7828?OpenDocument
I know NI has a great relationship with tektronics (tek has a LV version inside the open scopes, NI has develop a specific version of SignalExpress for Tek scopes)
Hope it helps.

Maxed out

My laptop is now maxed out with photos so I just bought a 1t Time Capsule. I would like to keep all of my iPhoto and Aperture original photos on the Time Capsule in order to free up as much space on my laptop as possible. Could someone tell me the best way to store and organize my photos.
Thanks.

I strongly recommend that every DSLR photog with adequate computer hardware first spend $33 and work through the tutorial CD Apple Pro Training Series: Aperture 1.5 (Apple Pro Training) by Orlando Luna and Ben Long (Paperback - Oct 18, 2006). Note that the value is in the tutorial, not in using the book as a manual.
IMO a cursory examination of Aperture usually turns out to be mostly a waste of time, or leads to bad workflow habits or folks simply do not get it. Carefully working the tutorial is by far the best way to learn this new killer app category.
Aperture version 2.1 is now out, and a new version of the Luna/Long tutorial is available for preorder: Apple Pro Training Series: Aperture 2 (Apple Pro Training Series) by Ben Long, Richard Harrington, and Orlando Luna (Paperback - May 8, 2008). I have not reviewed the v2 tutorial but I have preordered it from Amazon.com.
Good luck!

Maxed out CPU Usage, happens suddenly, no obvious cause, please help!

I've had an XServe-G5 running well for about 18 months, with anywhere from 2-5 active users at one time. The server is only running AFP, Software Update & FTP services.
For the last 2 months, without warning, the CPU usage will max out, with only a small amount of disk & lan access with it.
I've found a less than ideal solution . . . . the cpu max out seems to be linked to 1 or 2 users logged in at one time, but not always the same users, if these users disconnect then the CPU usage returns to normal. I haven't found a way to identify which user/users it is, so I disconnect them through 'Server Admin' one by one till I get a result.
This goes on up to 5 times a day. I've checked the AFP access log when the problem happens, but can't see anything there that isn't there normally, the error log has no events. When there are no users logged in, other than the local 'Admin', the problem does not occur.
We've resorted to only logging into the server when needed, but it's getting to be a major pain.
Please help!

Many things can cause this. What do you see in "top"?
One example is when you hit the "corrupt .DS_Store" bug in AFP. See afp548.com for a discussion, e.g.:

Maxed out MacBook pro or Mid level MacBook pro with Retina?

I am entering my first year in university in the next couple weeks. I am going to be studying commerce for the next 4 years. I want a macbook that will last me for the 4 years and still be a good product at that time period. Now I am wondering if I should spend $2000 on the maxed out MacBook pro or 2600 for the midlevel MacBookmacbook pro with Retina display. Looking forward to great feedback. Thanks

It depends on how far you want to go - and how much you want to spend - in maxing out the computer. Let me visit the Apple Store -
The 'base model' you should go with is the:
15-inch: 2.6 GHz
2.6GHz quad-core Intel Core i7
Turbo Boost up to 3.6GHz
8GB 1600MHz memory
750GB 5400-rpm hard drive
Intel HD Graphics 4000
NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M with 1GB of GDDR5 memory
Built-in battery (7 hours)
This will be a 'stock' item and has the maximum amount of RAM that Apple will install and is $2,199. The only modifcation to make on this model is the CPU and hard drive, as it also comes with the maxed out VRAM for the NVIDIA graphics card. I wouldn't go for the extra speed bump on the CPU - it's just not worth it. What is worth the extra money is an uprade to the hard drive - from the 750GB 5400-rpm to the 750GB 7200-rpm for an extra $50. If you really want to max it out, of course, you could add the $900 option of the 512GB SSD, but I wouldn't do that - simply too much to pay. So for $2,249 you could get:
15-inch: 2.6 GHz
2.6GHz quad-core Intel Core i7
Turbo Boost up to 3.6GHz
8GB 1600MHz memory
750GB 7200-rpm hard drive
Intel HD Graphics 4000
NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M with 1GB of GDDR5 memory
Built-in battery (7 hours)
...and have a very fast (not warp speed, but fast) computer that should you ever decide to upgrade, you can.
As for the Retina display, it's simply something that I would not invest in at this time. The 'base' model, with only 8GB of RAM is $2,799.00. Increase that RAM to 16GB, and you're looking at $2,999. The extra $750 just isn't worth it. And with few applications taking advantage of the Retina display (if they ever do) you're going to be looking at pixelated tools, text, etc., for who knows how many years. You could get by running only Apple applications, I suppose, but I'm just not ready to be placed in that kind of restrictive mode... are you?
Just my 2¢, again...

Narration too quiet with levels maxed out

Hi! I'm trying to record narration in Premiere Elements 7 and despite my levels being maxed out, it's still way too quiet. I just purchased a Blue Snowball Ice USB mic. I also tried it with a non-USB mic and got the same result. I also tried recording through Soundbooth CS4 and it sounded the same. I've tried to adjust the levels both through Windows control panel and in the narration recorder window in Premiere but nothing helps. Any ideas?

julieoolie
Thanks for the follow up with the additional details.
From your details, this is not a Premiere Elements issue. Rather it is an issue involving
your computer sound system and equipment.
If you were stuck with a bunch of low volume narration clips from whatever source, you could consider looking at
at the the following which uses the free audio editor Audacity to increase volume (Amplitude)
Audacity tutorial:making the sound track louder, increasingthe Amplitude, or normalizing the volume levels
Audacity: Free Audio Editor and Recorder
Then you export the volume adjusted clips from Audacity (.wav or .mp4) and import them into the Premiere Elements project.
But, the focus would appear to be on the system volume settings for recording and speakers. So, I am not sure if there is any
merit in working with Audacity in a sound flawed system. You could try.
There is a maneuver in Premiere Elements that you could look at when you have the audio clip volume at max 6 dB and the volume is not loud
enough. Make copies of the audio clip and place the copies directly above one another on the audio tracks. Keep stacking them until
you get the increased volume that you want.
Please review and consider and then we decide what next.
Thank you.

Maxing out on RAM

Hey
My old powerbook came with 128, I added 512 to start then exchanged that with a 1gig so it was running on 1.128. No problem at all. Spec said max was 640.
I now have the macbook pro 2.16 C2D 15.4 screen. It came with a removable gig ram and I had a gig from my previous MBP. However - I feel 2gig is not enough. This MBP says it can only do 3gig ram. Recent models can do 4. I'm wondering if anyone has maxed out the ram on a 3gig version and run it on 4.
I'm thinking of pullng out both 1gigs and sticking 2x2gig in it. Just want to make sure it is possible.
Appreciate any help.

Hi,
one benefit of 2x2GB is that you still have the 'pairing' advantage of some small percentage more speed when the memory is accessed.
And secondly, if you decide to get a Santa Rosa MBP in the future you can use this memory for it.
Other than that, you are right, not much use.
Have Fun

My hard drive is about maxed out, what are my options

I have a MacBook that is about 5 years old. My hard drive is about maxed out. Trying to determine if it is worth trying to get a larger hard drive, whether I just go to a portable hard drive (a bit of a pain since I travel so much) or something else. Don't think I can even upgrade to Mountain Lion because of lack of hard drive space. I love my Mac, but am looking at possibly going to an iPad for travel as the Mac is heavy and I have to carry two computers (work and personal). Considered buying a new Mac, say an Air, but don't have that kind of cash to drop for it.
Would appreciate any opinions out there? If I upgrade the hard drive, what kind of money are we talking about?

To transfer your current hard drive I like the free application SuperDuper. It makes a bootable copy of everything on your hard drive http://www.shirt-pocket.com/SuperDuper/SuperDuperDescription.html You'll need a cheap SATA external hard drive case. Put the new drive in the case then format and partition the new drive and clone your old drive to the new one. Check that it's set up right by booting up from the external drive. Then replace your old hard drive with the new one and put your old one in the external case.

Why does the sampling rate for my DAQCard-700 max out at 6578Hz regardless of the number of channels I'm sampling?

My DAQCard-700 is acting funny. I am using LABView 6.0.2 on a Dell Inspiron 8100 laptop for continuous analog input. For some reason my DAQCard-700 won't let me acquire multiple channels unless I create virtual channels in max and then run AI Config with a list of the virtual channel names. That's fine (but weird), but I max out my sampling rate at 6578 Hz, which is the max sampling rate if I would have sampled all 16 (Referenced, single-ended) AI channels. But I'm not -- I'm sampling 6 channels, as proven by the "number of channels" indicator in AI config and just looking at my data. If I sample just one channel, I can get up to 105248Hz. Is my card f
ried, or am I missing a hidden setting somewhere? I have the latest NIDAQ.

Hello;
By the description of your problem, everything is pointing us to a hardware failure.
There aren't any tricks to acquire multiple channels with that card.
The best way to go about this is to have NI to fix the board for you.

Filipe

Desktop app startup GUI Grey out using JDK1.5 using -Xmx1152m

Hi,
We have a desktop swing app which works with JVM max heap size -Xmx1152m in JDK 1.4.2 without any problems. But using JDK 1.5, the GUI shows up in GREY and not repaint itseld even if we force repaint by minimising or being another windows over it.
However, there is no problem if we reduce the -Xmx size from 1152m to about 512m and this problem does not show up on all machines.
Is this problem anyway related to the following bug ?
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=32&threadID=554377
We would appreciate if someone can help us fix this problem.
We compiled our source code with JDK 1.5 and run with JDK1.5 and we do not use any JDK 1.5 features. We want to use JDk 1.5 for our memory and performance improvements. Ours is a heaby memory usage app so we can not afford to reduce -Xmx to 512m from 1152m.
Thanks

It could be to a corrupt Video Driver or Microsoft DirectX driver on that machine and 1.5 is taking advantage of some new directx methods to speed up video rendering. May 1.5 is using more vram than 1.4. You could also try downloading and installing/or reinstalling the latest Microsoft DirectX drivers and the latetest video drivers for the Dell Optiplex GX280. After that carefully read the link I provided, it might provide you with some clue as to what is going wrong and you could experiment with other ddraw properties.
