VPIX users: current and future

(1 / 1)


If you currently use or expect to use VPIF, a tool that allows one to 
view picture files on the GPX terminals, then read on.

	This program, running on the GPX's in the LSI CAD lab, 
has a nasty problem.  It takes almost all of the cpu.

	EVEN WHEN THE DISPLAY IS STATIC AND 
	THERE IS NO APPARENT PROCESSING OCCURING.

The batch queues grind to a sub-crawl.  
This stops LSI design unnecessarily.

	So please, if you use VPIF get what you need then log off.
