Colin, the swaps per minute data comes from the line in the Connection stats data which says Bitswap: dddd uuuu - the figures increment continuously, and your first graph shows normal-looking values.
The data for the other graph comes from the Bitloading data - I use the changing bit allocations for each tone to sum up the number of bitswaps which that tone has been subject to. If the Bitloading graph changes but the Bitswap graph doesn't display anything, then there's something amiss.
Can you confirm that that bitloading values are changing?
God, it must be getting late in the evening, or I'm just not seeing it. Sorry!
.
Ok, so the bitswap count increases on each sample, e.g. 1min, and from that you calculate the delta from the previous as the rate/min? Am I just missing something, or am I just dumb (don't answer that!
) - if bitswaps have occured, i.e. there is a delta, then is it likely that the bitloadings would be identical between samples?
ATM I don't think this is your program, I think it's the
HG622 HG612 with the new blob. Could it be that, as you are suggesting, the bitloadings are only being captured at sync e.g. like the QLN & Hlog, and therefore are not changing between samples even though in reality they must be?
I should be able to get the bitloadings from Paul's raw data stats file to see if they change or not. Watch this space ... I'll get back to you.
[EDIT] ok, well that seems to be it. I edited out the bitloadings from the Plink files that Paul captured on the resynch at 17:57 this evening, and at the scheduled capture at 22:00.

FC:
no differences encounteredThe corresponding bitswap counts at those times were:
Bitswap: 2 0
Bitswap: 370 826
That's for all 4095 tones!!! Oh, and
BTW when I said HG622, I really meant HG612 with the new blob!
Sorry! I had swapped out the 612 for the 622 earlier today, but I was having some difficulties with Paul's stats on the 622, so decided to flash the new blob onto the 612 instead and use that.
So, not the 622, but the 612 with the new blob. But it seems that the new blob doesn't record bitloadings changes between syncs. Has anybody else seen this, or am I just
(don't answer that either!
)
