PyFFI 2.1.7

[l0new0lf331]

Hello yet again.

So I'm running my PyFFI v2.1.7,watching it chew up my resources.I know I gotta get canned air to blow out my computers innards,and am going through everything I got to tweak some of the things I don't need,but I was wondering something.Before with v2.1.5 it didn't eat up so much of my CPU when I ran toaster.Now it eats up my CPU like it was candy so I was wondering if the exclusion of this line in the ini might cause that.

[options]

; set this to the number of cores you have

jobs = 4

With 2.1.5 I set it to 2 as I have a dual core.Was able to surf the web,watch a movie,or prep folders for PyFFIing.Is this needed for toaster to utilize resources better?Can I add it to the ini?Or is that option no longer supported.?

You should definitely change that down to 2 in your case. Trying to run 4 jobs on a 2-core processor leads to exactly what you're talking about.

Actually that line isn't even in the 2.1.7 default ini.I was wondering if I could put it back in and change it to 2.

This is the default ini as I installed 2.1.7:

[main]

; default folder to toast

; should *not* end with a trailing slash

folder = ./in

[options]

; default source directory (for determining paths to write in destdir,

; usually identical to folder)

; should *not* end with a trailing slash

source-dir = ./in

; default destination directory

; should *not* end with a trailing slash

dest-dir = ./out

; resume support (if True, nifs that already exist in destination

; folder will be skipped)

resume = True

; if True, pause when done

pause = True

So that whole option is excluded in the default ini.Can I place it in,and where exactly?

Yes, you can put it back in if it's not there. Which it apparently isn't after updating to 2.1.7.
