Hey folks, This is sort of a follow up to my email yesterday about memory leaks. I'd found some really good reading material in my hour or so of googling prior to sending that email. Wondering if anyone can recommend good reading on the topic - including raw facts like this jackpot I seem to have hit upon ( http://www.kernel.org/doc/gorman/html/understand/ ), as well as articles on

Hi there, I have a data frame DF of over 600 people's short term trade data in time order. Below is the simplified structure of the data. id invest payout [1] 1 10 -1 [2] 1 33 33 [3] 1 20 -5 [4] 2 200 33 [5] 2 33 -20 [6] 3 5 -5 [7] 3 5

Dear List, Below is a simple, standard loss model that takes into account the terms of an insurance policy: deductible <- 15 coverage.limit <- 75 insurance.threshold <- deductible + coverage.limit tmpf <- function() { loss <- rlnorm(rpois(1, 3), 2, 5) sum(ifelse(loss > insurance.threshold, loss - coverage.limit, pmin(loss, deductible))) } net <- replicate(1000000, tmpf())

Trey, The Compaq NC7770 PCI-X Gigabit Server Adapter supports PXE: http://www.compaq.com/products/servers/networking/NC7770/ This NIC will be available next month. Also, our strategy is to support PXE on all ProLiant server embedded NICs (10/100/1000) beginning with G2 (generation2) models. Also, most existing DL and all BL servers currently support PXE on their embedded (10/100) NICs. Let

Hi, I'm an R newbie and I've been struggling with a optimization problem for the past couple of days now. Here's the problem - I have a matrix of expected payouts from different stock option strategies. Each column in my matrix represents a different stock and each row represents the return to the strategy given a certain market move. So the rows are not a time series of percentage

Hi , i am trying to get this loop in my r program to work but it is not giving me the results that I desire. I am trying to model an insurance contract where there are n securities that have a fixed likelihood of default vector(data[i,2]) and a payout vector(data[i,1]). i need to price the value of stop losses at the security level and at the portfolio level. to do this i created two while loops

I have ADSI working on my Aastra (Vista/Nortel) 350 phone and everything is working fine. However, I want the asterisk.adsi to load into the 'self-load' slot but can't figure out what the correct FDN for doing this is. Does anyone know the right FDN for the SL slot on these phones? Also, does anyone have any cool/interesting ADSI scripts they wouldn't mind sharing? I'm

Hello fellow samba users, I have installed quite a couple of samba fileservers so far. There are exactly two installations which give me real hard time, and both have to do with Win9x clients running applications based on ... *sigh* btrieve. What I do server-sided is switch on opportunistic locking (level2 oplocks = yes). Without this, the applications don't run at all, at least not on more

I changed the initrd to 2.6mb and that memory block is still exactly at 23852 / 14464 / 14464. Actually the process size is around 12 mb when pygrub is counting down to boot, then jumps up to 14+ mb

On a machine with virtual networking is enabled and two ether net controllers eth0/192.168.1.2 and eth1/192.168.1.3 and having SAMBA smb.conf set to: dns interfaces = lo br0 is there a chance for: 1) The system not to boot with DNS working 2) The DNS server bounce between eth0 and eth1 3) The DNS server portion work on boot sometimes on eth0, but when software restarted only work on eth1 or

The bounty stands at $5,500. I'm seriously considering taking a shot at it if I can find a decent T.38 provider to test with (I'm still hoping for reliable PAYG T.38). It looks like a lot of very smart people have done a lot of very hard work (t38modem, spandsp) that would go towards getting this working. At this point it appears to be mostly a matter of integration

My Samba Server had a wild time this weekend thanks to alleged power fluctuations. I'm using Samba 3.x on Fedora 4. My server sits on an APC UPS that remains in good health. When I arrived this Monday I found that my MicroTik Router was still up. My Win XP pro AV server was off and my Fedora/SAMBA box was also off. (all boxes have their own 15min UPS) The Win XP pro was brought up w/out

Hi there. I needed to recompile xapi to fix a bug that was resolved regarding vdi-create not setting the sharable flag. I used the sources provided in the source-1.iso from xen.org. Everything is good in this regard, and creating a vdi that has "sharable=true" is possible, but I had a problem that forced me to revert to the older copy of the xapi binary because my XCP box was now being

Hi, Reading about a "Heads and Tails" game in http://www.dartmouth.edu/~chance/teaching_aids/books_articles/probability_book/amsbook.mac.pdf Introduction to Probability (Example 1.4, pp. 5-8). You toss a coin 40 times. If heads, Peter wins $1, tails, he loses $1. I think I can do that ok with: winnings <- sum(sample(c(-1,1), 40, replace=TRUE)) But I have to do it 10,000 times
