HB Xmas 99 tests log.

sunpie5:~belforte/vme/hb/random_test/hb_test_random
100 events (average) per interaction.
testin 2 HB at the same time.

8 layers. SS=2.

dec 15-17: about 10k iter in slow mode
dec 18: 10K iter ~ 1 million events 
   ended by memory leak
dec 19: 85900 iter from 16:37 to 03:48 = 11h11m=671min=40ksec=2iter/sec
                                       = 200 ev/sec =50KHz/250.
   ended by power trip

dec 20==> 10^7 events so far *2 HB = 2*10^7 /50K=400sec real life.

dec 20 10:58 --> 11:22   3889 iter ended by MERGER BERR (not reproducible)
       11:38 --> 11:43    789 iter ended by MERGER BERR (not reproducible)
       11:40 --> 11:48    466 iter ended by MERGER BERR (reproduc !!)
tighten screwn on Meger front panel (slot 15 vmesvt3) no help
extract/reinsert emrger ==>OK.
Grand total so far: 91044 iter
       11:58 --> 15:44  36884 inter ended to change code (g.t=127,928)
300 more iter during code development.

20 dic 18:19 --> 21 dic 10:39 165,500 iter and running.. (299,238 so far)
    (16h20m = 980min=58800sec ==> 2.8 iter/sec = 170 iter/min)

    x2 HB ==> testing at 1/100 experiment rate !!
  13:56 ==> 198000    ended to change executable (331,738 total !)
                      = 33 Million events = 11 min real time (*2 hb)

21 dic: new version that changes AM_MAP each 1k iterations and
   checks all HB spy buffers each 20 iterations. Also changes SS_size
   each 10k iteration.
 ~2500 iter OK during code development. (VERY slow now... network to vme ?)

start test 21 dic 16:16 --> 22 dic 08:23 16960 iter ended by network err
           (total so far about 20K iter with new code, SS_size =4 for
            the first 10K, SS_size=8 afterwards) = 2M events = 40sec run

restart same test:  (now 145 it/min OK vs 170 with no time lost to change
                     maps nor spy check ~= L1rate/200 )
22 dic 11:08 --> 
       13:45 23k iter and running = 2.3 M event. Total 38 Mev so far).
       15:12 37K iter ended to update executable (3.7Mev, total 39 Mev)

         restart with new program (better printouts)
       15:19 --> 2110 iter ended to fix C warning on strings (SSsize=4)
       15:38 -->  restarted with SS_size=8
       15:53  2250  iter ended to fix random seed accounting (4.5K)
22 dic 15:56  --> restarted with SS_size=8

       16:47 180600 iter end to change code (make SS=8 more rare)
             so far 180.6Kiter=18.1Mev + 39Mev+450Kev=58.55 Mev).
             need 25k more iter to reach target (20min real time)
23 dic 16:49  --> restarted with SS_size=4 
              --> 25 dic 10:18 ended by network error 503700 iter (41h29m

27 dic 15:11 restart with SS_size=2.
