Shinmera: There's something I don't understand what specifying the base directory for a pool. Say I have the following absolute path where I'm defining the pool: /home/zyd/src/workshop/lisp/cay/source/assets.lisp --- And a directory called 'data' with the absolute path: /home/zyd/src/workshop/lisp/cay/data

For a relative path to 'data' from assets.lisp it should just be up one directory with "../data". Yet, if I specify the path that way (as the :base initarg), Trial clearly considers that wrong and uses its defaults. I have to specify "../../data" instead. Am I missing something about pathnames?

Unless, I guess one of those 'ups' is 'up from the filename', as if the filename itself is a directory (conceptually).

It's a result of the pathname normalization in define-pool, I see. I don't understand why its doing it this way but suppose this is a Trialism for a good reason that goes over my head.

zyd: I only just woke up, but remember that "foo" is a file designator, not a directory designator, and that's important for pathnames.

I made some cahnges to the master branch on cl-uastc. Thanks for the scaling program for benchmarking. It really helped

I also wanted to do benchmark scaffolding, but my brain refused to focus on that :(

so I was studying the graph table from sb-sprof while i was travelling on Sunday, and then started making changes based on that too. It did improve performance. Thank you for that pointer too

glenneth2: sorry to hear that. do you ever drink tea? Camomile tea practically knocks me out. Actually same question to shinmera.

glenneth
and shinmera I appreciated the call out in your post too. And I'm glad that led to more work on the lichat stack :) I will get back to the client later today. I'm thinking how to "spread the word" about lichat. I've actually incorporated it into a project so users can chat with a QA/QC person in the app

Hugo
well, if sleep is an issue maybe give camomile tea a try, it will make you really relaxed even if you don't like tea so much
