Rumble Client

Hey, I just want to start by thanking you for running a rumble client. However, for some reason the results from your client for DrussGT are very different from what I'm getting with my local tests. I'm just curious what your setup is and what might be causing this.

Thanks

Hi Skilgannon,

There is nothing special. Rumble clients runs with a stock config, where only user name is set and I exclude Lo_Ian.Gandalf_V4*, since it seems to halt on my side. This 6 CPU machine, but only 2 are heavily used for roborumble and meleerumble clients, though last week I left It unattended and firefox start to consume a lot of load, so may be it somehow skewed CPU constant of the client.

If you have some ideas what could it be, I will be happy to investigate.

Things often brought up in rumble client discrepancy cases are which OS is in use, and what exact version of Java is in use.

Also, other possible relevant factors are:

1. If CPU frequency scaling is enabled, as it is by default on most newer machines (this can cause problems for robocode's CPU time limiting being fair)
2. If the system in question has high memory usage such that it goes into swap space.
