Using Multiple Cores

Hi,
I'm new to Qmaster, and I'm trying to use it to utilize multiple cores when exporting video from Compressor. I following instructions to get the option of a cluster other than "This Computer" in Compressor:
First, go to System Preferences.
Choose Apple Qmaster
Stop Sharing if it's on.
Set to Quick Cluster with Services
Select "Distributed processing for Compressor"
Click on Options for Selected Service. You can choose from 1 to 8 instances, depending on the number of cores you have.
Give your Quick Cluster a name like "op's Local Cluster."
Once you have the options set, click Start Sharing, and close the prefere
I did all this, and it didn't work. Then I found someone telling me to deselect "Managed" and select "Shared" in services, and my new cluster finally showed up in Compressor. However, when I submit batches to that cluster, nothing happens. Time elapses, but to the best of my knowledge, no video is being produced. Am I doing something wrong, or just reading what's going on incorrectly?

Bryan G. wrote:
Jon Chappell, why are you saying that Qmaster has to launch multiple instances of whatever app is doing the compressing? If you have multiple Macs networked together, you don't even need to have FCPro installed to use Qmaster services.
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/Qmaster3Compressor_3_Distributed_ProcessingSetup.pdf
See p.77.
To export a Final Cut Pro sequence directly to Compressor for distributed processing:
1 *Make sure Final Cut Pro is installed on each computer in the cluster that you intend to use for distributed processing.*
Each installation of Final Cut Pro requires a product serial number. For information about volume licenses, go to http://www.apple.com/finalcutstudio.
But as I said, that's only if you export directly from FCP. If you export to a QuickTime movie first and then import that to Compressor, that will work fine without FCP being installed. You will, of course, need the necessary codecs installed on the cluster machines though.

Spatial Query, Use Multiple Cores

Basic question, is SQL 2012 running on Windows 2008 R2 64 bit expected to use multiple cores to execute it's tasks?
I have a table of points, 480, that has 3 empty columns that are being updated from 3 separate tables of polygons via a spatial join based on an intersection (STIntersects) of the point and polygons. All of the data is in 4326 and all tables have spatial
indexes.
The server running this query has 32 logical cores, but only 1 core is used and it is maxed out. It takes 53 seconds to complete the update. I have over a million points that need this done. I want to assume that if SQL can access more cores it will complete
faster.
I've looked at the actual execution plan and there is a 99% cost on the spatial query.
update A
set CONGRESS_DISTRICT = B.DISTRICT, HOUSE_DISTRICT = C.DISTRICT, SENATE_DISTRICT = D.DISTRICT
from [LegislativeMapData2014].[dbo].[CNRM_INFORCE_EXTRACT093014_COMBINED_GEOCODED] A
inner join [LegislativeMapData2014].[dbo].[CONGRESS_2014] B
on A.FEATURE_SHAPE.STIntersects(B.FEATURE_SHAPE) = 1
inner join [LegislativeMapData2014].[dbo].[HOUSE_2014] C
on A.FEATURE_SHAPE.STIntersects(C.FEATURE_SHAPE) = 1
inner join [LegislativeMapData2014].[dbo].[SENATE_2014] D
on A.FEATURE_SHAPE.STIntersects(D.FEATURE_SHAPE) = 1
Is there anything I can do to improve the performance of the query? Do I need to hint the indexes? Or something else?
Thanks

Hi,
updating millions of records could lock your resource and other users may have trouble connecting or reading data.
In some cases, variable table is your friend, insert the data you needed to a variable table before issuing the update.
with that, you may need to have (nolock) on each table. eg.
[LegislativeMapData2014].[dbo].[CONGRESS_2014] (nolock)

Does iMovie09 use multiple cores??

Does iMovies 09 take advantage of multiples cores such as the core i5 or the core i7? this is really the deal breaker for me in buying the new 27 inch iMac.

Not as far as I know.
One thing to realize is that it is very complicated for an application programmer to write code that takes advantage of multiple cores. Apple has addressed this in Snow Leopard by providing a system framework called Grand Central Dispatch that makes it simpler for application developers to use multiple cores. It still will take one or more development cycles before developers really start taking advantage of this.

AE CS5 is not using Multiple Cores

I have a six core Intel I7 980X machine which i've got running at over 4GHz, yet AE is completely not making use of this speed.
I've turned on "Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously", and set it to use all cores (it detects 12 because of hyper threading on the I7 CPU's) and this does nothing for both the Preview window/working area or when actually rendering a video in the Render Queue. It uses about 9% at most of my CPU, that's not even 2 full cores.
I also have two SSD drives in RAID 0, they're Crucial C300 SSD's, pretty much the fastest you can get, infinitely faster than any Hard Drive, yet again... not making use of these it seems. I also have 12GB DDR3 running at 2GHz, i've set AE to use 9GB of it, as much as it will allow.... yet i cant even work with HD 1080p material and get near to smooth performance or even play it smoothly with or without effects applied, atleast with the video/viewer window near to 1080p size. Really pathetic. Premiere Pro on the other hard does a much better job but still dont fully make use of the speed and cores available. Adobe Media Encoder also does not use all cores.
Other software and even games make way better use of these cores than Adobe software seems to.
I've got two ATI 5870 graphics cards in Crossfire mode, they have the latest drivers. Performance is like this on any driver version though, but as far as i know none of this software makes use of the GPU's like it does with certain CUDA based Nvidia cards. I'd still like it to actually make use of my other hardware though.
I'm most bothered about AE, so any ideas why AE CS5 is [edited] so badly?
This is on Win7 x64.
Thanks for your help!

I've atleast made the renderer work a little faster by ticking "Enable OpenGL" in the Render Settings, and increasing the amount of used graphics card RAM to 800MB.
I also tried doing what those Blog posts said in the FAQ links - It has not helped much, if at all. So i tried a few different other RAM settings too, which didn't really help.
Then i put the video files on my SSD drives, and that helped a little. But not much difference still overall, very unimpressed with AE CS5 performance. It's took me hours to put together a 1min 30secs video that has 6 video files in total with some lens blur and colour grading effects applied, that's just silly, even for often slow Adobe software.
Cant see this happening but i'd like it if Adobe almost completely focus on performance for CS6 and hardly add any new features. While also making use of the speed of Solid State Drives and having GPU's also made use of more. I mean my SSD's are capable of reading around 600MB/sec and doing 40,000 I/O's per second but none of this is being made use of.

Logic not using multiple cores?

I have a project that seems to be burning out my CPU. The music starts distorting and crackling, and I've noticed that the little CPU indicator is hitting the top of the chart. But, I also have the iStat monitor installed, and the CPU never reads as going above 50%.
I have a dual core intel, is it possible that Logic is using only one core?

I have the same problem.
On a i7 iMac with 16 gigs of ram. Logic is only using one core no matter what settings I use (auto, 8 or 4), and even using the bus rerouting trick the plugins still run on the same core. That core create glitch when it reaches 100%, but really only 25% of my iMac is used.
Way to get us spending money, pay 3000$ for a computer that is 4 times faster than the previous one, but then your limited to 25% of what you paid for.

Does IMovie '11 Use Multiple Cores?

I'm trying to decide between a high end 4 core (4G i7) iMac and a (3.5G Xeon) 6 core 2013 Mac Pro. Currently I have a 2009 Mac Pro. I do light video editing, and was wondering whether iMovie '11 would take advantage of the extra 2 cores, as opposed to the faster speed of the iMac 4 cores...
Thoughts?

I'm not sure that iMovie '11 will use all the cores. iMovie '13 (version 10) will BUT.... If you are going to splash 3000-4000 $ on a high-end mac why not layout a paltry additional $300 on Final Cut Pro 10.1.x which is FAR more powerful and less frustrating to use than iMovie and will definitely make best use of your processing power.

Can FMLE use 6 core fully?

I am recently want to upgrade my computer for higher quality streaming.
I am looking at AMD 1095(6core) and 970(4core).Since stream is about video encording, 6core should have better result.
But i am not sure if FMLE can fully use the advantage of 6 core processor.
Is 1095 better than 970 in this suition? or there are some other cup you will recommend. (perfer AMD but i am open mind)

FMLE can use multiple cores. it is certified for 8 core and 16 cores machines as well. for single stream, FMLE may not use all the cores fully but for multiple streams higher the number of cores better the performance is.

FCE 4 vs. 3.5 with multiple cores

Hello,
I've just upgraded to an 8-core Mac Pro. I've been using FCE 3.5 HD, and wondering if there's much difference between how it uses multiple cores for things like rendering, vs. FCE 4. I don't need the new video formats that 4 supports, so was wondering if I would notice any speed improvements by upgrading. Thanks.
Dan

Hi Mark,
Thanks for the reply.
FCP cost's $300 - do I really need that if Motion 5 does the same thing? If it gets my render speed down significantly I'm willing but I won't be using it for anything else - I just want to make sure I get a good return on my investment.
And "compressor" is that a part of FCP or another program to purchase?

Can iMovie 11 use quad core?

Does anyone know, if iMovie 11 can make use of all of the 4 cores on the new Macbook Pro I7 processor? I am thinking of buying either the quad core, or the dual core Macbook Pro for iMovie related work.
I asked this at the Apple store, but they were not sure.
Thank you.

I am using a MacPro (3/2014) with 6 cores and 16GB of RAM.
Encoding a 58 minute video in SD is estimated to take 1 hr 10 minutes.
While the CPU monitor shows the "ProTranscoderToolsb" running at 460% and I'Movie at 58%, it is not clear to me whether this means that the I'Movie is using multiple cores (i.e. 5 of my 6 cores) and is multi-threaded.
Does anyone have an answer for this.
I was surprised that this render would take this long as I upgraded my old MacPro (2008 1st generation but with 4 cores) precisely for the additional rendering power.
My impression is like some others, that if I'Movie is using multi-threading, it is not using it very efficiently. Apple needs to address this on all of its products. It is ironic that Adobe (Photoshop 6 and CC which rip) appear to use the new MacPro's power more effectively than Apple software products.

Can DIAdem 2012 use multiple processors on Quad Core CPU?

Hi,
I am running scripts in DIAdem 2012 which take upwards of 10 minutes to complete. However, I notice my CPU usage never goes above 15% during this time. My understanding is that that generally suggests the software is not 64-bit compatible and therefore not taking advantage of the other cores (I'm on a quad-core i7). I also have 12gb ram and that is not being heavily taxed by DIAdem either.
Anybody know how I can squeeze some extra juice out of my computer to help DIAdem run faster? Thanks!

Hello Mark,
Multi-core support only makes sense for very few operations in DIAdem (i.e. Large amounts of data being sent through an FFT routine) and is currently not supported. Also, 64-bit only makes a difference when working with very large data files.
That said, there are ways to improve processing speed in DIAdem without using extra cores or 64-bit versions of software. My best suggestion is to get in touch with our senior Product Support Engineer (Dr. Brad Turpin) and combing through your Script(s) to see where there is potential to improve processing speeds by optimizing the Script(s). I'm not implying that your Script(s) are badly written, I just know from experience that changing a few things in the Script(s) has lead to reduced processing times by using optimized functions in DIAdem that you might not be aware of.
Dr. Turpin can be reached at this email address: brad DOT turpin @ ni DOT com
Please reference this forum thread when you contact him.

How to use multiple VCI strings for lap 1300 and 1200 (option 60) in one pool?

Hi All,
Hope to you a very happy new year,
I have two differnt LAP 1300 and 1200 in my network and I need to add theme to the WLC,
I successed to add one of theme by the option 60 in the DHCP pool at the Core SW,
So my quetion is below:
How to use multiple VCI strings for lap 1300 and 1200 (option 60) in one pool?
Thanks in Advanced,
Ahmed,

To add to Scott's post. Option 60 would be useful if you needed to put certain types of AP on specific controllers. Otherwise, no real need to use it for the most part.
Though, I do recall an issue a few years ago that some windows machines had issues getting DHCP if option 43 is being returned.
Now, on an IOS switch, you can only configure one option 60 per DHCP scope

Cross tab data is getting multiplied if i use multiple queris in asingle report

HI,
i am using multiple queris for displaying data and graphs(charts).
my requirement is to display 2 charts and data in crosstab in a single report.
all the three thing (2charts and crosstab) will use diffrent values.
I am writing 3 sql queries for getting appropriate values for charts and crosstab.
Now the problem, both charts and crosstab are taking the values of all 3 queris
i.e if i added crosstab first to the report values are coming correctly. After that if i add graph cross tab values are getting changed and graph values are not getting properly.
if i add graph first then its coming correctly.
if i tried to add all 3 components then values are going cores...... ?

When you say you are writing 3 sql queries what do you mean? Are you creating 3 SQL command objects in the database expert? If so this is your problem, Crystal will pull a cartesian product through (this is every possible combinatin of rows from the 3 queries).
If your 2 graphs and 1 crosstab are based on different datasets the way to approach this is to create each on a seperate report, then create a new blank report and add each of your 3 reports as subreports in the report footer.
Hope this helps,
Toby

Oracle BPEL running on multi-processor/multi-core using one core

Hi,
At a site we have running Oracle BPEL on OAS (10.1.2), AIX 5.3 LPAR with 10 cores (5 processors). Shortly we have an noticable load on the system, which revealed that Oracle BPEL seems to be bound to one processor. Therefore the other processors are hardly used. Can this be solved by re-configuring OAS or Oracle BPEL to use multiple processors for separate threads or Is this an Oracle Application Server or Oracle BPEL limititation and should we install multiple OC4J's to make effective use of the processors.
Cheers,
Peter

ORACLE_HOME\opmn\conf\
To set the number JVMs in the Application Server Control Console, see "Creating Additional JVMs for an OC4J Instance" in the Application Server Control online help.
To set the number of JVMs by editing the numprocs argument in the opmn.xml file, refer to the following example, which shows the numprocs entry you must modify:
<ias-component id="OC4J"> <process-type id="home" module-id="OC4J" status="enabled">
<process-set id="default_group" numprocs="2"/>
</process-type>
</ias-component>
Note, however, that this feature is not supported by Application Server Control. Specifically, Application Server Control (represented by the ascontrol application) cannot run on an OC4J instance that is running multiple JVMs. As a result, be sure that you do not configure multiple JVMs for the administration OC4J instance (the OC4J instance that is hosting the active ascontrol).If you choose to configure the number of JVMs for the administration OC4J to more than one (1), then you must use command line tools to manage your Oracle Application Server environment. For example, you must use:
admin_client.jar for deployment, re-deployment, undeployment, start and stop applications, and shared library management
Apache Ant for deployment, redeployment, and undeployment of your applications
opmnctl commands for starting, stopping, and other life cycle operations on the Oracle Application Server
Further, if you are using multiple JVMs on the administration OC4J and, as a result, the Application Server Control Console is not available, then you must make any Oracle Application Server instance configuration changes manually. Manual configuration changes often require you to shut down the Oracle Application Server instance, manually configure the relevant XML files, and then restart Oracle Application Server.
