keyword=probably solution to ER1 woes
Randy MacLeod of DAQ group found out that "datamon"
takes 15% of the SunOS kernel time, presumably it is
very inefficient. This probably led to the problem of ER1 losing its
communication to runcontrol at high rates. The long-term solution is
for me to learn TCL/TK better, but the short-term and simpler
solution is to run "datamon" on adaqs3 only. Actually this
is now automatic, because now if the shift workers try to run datamon
on adaqs2 where CODA runs, they will get a friendly reminder
of what to do. And "datamon" is rarely re-started.
