Got bored, Come watch OS X own all :D


Recommended Posts

done.

i thik you needa good pc to do it. i have 4GBs of ram and a core 2 quad.

i got to like 300 and a ballon came up saying about poor performance at the time i was using like 3.2GBs of ram this dropped to about 2.8GBs

then when i got to 350 and it said aero was using too much ram and turned it off then ram usage dropped again from 3.2GBs to about 1.9GBs.

from there on i just had to open loads more upto 1000 it seemed it was aero taking most of the ram to run the windows rather than notepad itself.

ended on about 3GBs as from the pic

If you have the DWM running (aka "Aero" or "desktop composition") it will use more memory because each top-level window (regardless of what it contains, even something as simple as notepad) gets its own bitmap to draw to. Basically, in the old model (XP and such) it would be like all 1000 of those windows is on-screen and fully visible.

This also means that the size of those windows will have a significant impact on the overall memory usage (of the DWM).

I'd try this right now on my machine, but given the OS I'm running, it wouldn't be a fair comparison :)

Damn, I started a monster thread :D

Ok, thats it, i'm building an apple script and going to use my mates Mac Pro to open 10,000 windows :D *and expos?*

As I said though, I was able to open 2000 TextEdits without IShowYou running on my MacBook

    • Microsoft's fast coding model MAI-Code-1-Flash comes to Copilot Business and Enterprise by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft’s recently announced MAI-Code-1-Flash model is now generally available to GitHub Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise customers. With this support, organizations can have more centralized policy controls and billing while finally being able to use Microsoft’s lightweight, first-party coding model. According to GitHub’s announcement, Business and Enterprise plan administrators must enable the MAI-Code-1-Flash policy in Copilot settings before developers can access the model. Microsoft says that MAI-Code-1-Flash is for fast, iterative coding work rather than the most demanding architectural or debugging tasks. GitHub’s official model comparison page says that the model is great for "general-purpose coding and writing," while it excels at fast, accurate code completions and explanations Microsoft introduced MAI-Code-1-Flash on June 2 as part of a broader collection of internally developed MAI models. GitHub subsequently expanded support to Copilot CLI, the Copilot cloud agent, GitHub.com chat, GitHub Mobile, Visual Studio, JetBrains IDEs, Eclipse, and Xcode, but said support for managed Business and Enterprise customers was still on the way. In Microsoft’s own benchmark testing, MAI-Code-1-Flash scored 51.2% on SWE-Bench Pro, compared with 35.2% for Anthropic’s Claude Haiku 4.5. Microsoft also claimed that the model used up to 60% fewer tokens on SWE-Bench Verified. Do note that these are vendor-run results rather than independent measurements. The model is billed at provider list pricing under GitHub’s usage-based system. GitHub currently lists MAI-Code-1-Flash at $0.75 per million input tokens, $0.075 per million cached input tokens, and $4.50 per million output tokens. For organizations, the main incentive to use MAI-Code-1-Flash is likely to be efficiency rather than maximum capability. A smaller model that responds quickly and limits unnecessary output is quite useful for repetitive agent tasks at scale, especially after GitHub Copilot’s move toward usage-based billing. The "Flash" model is recommended for fast work and not necessarily for huge repositories with loads of context. It's better if teams compare their output with other larger models, especially if they're working on security-sensitive changes and complex, multi-file work.
    • yes AND no the "original" or plain/normal Optiplex 7010 won't be getting any more new firmware updates BUT the Optiplex SFF/SFF Plus {small form factor}, Micro/Micro Plus & Tower/Tower Plus 7010 editions DO get new updates such as this new one   and here are similar guides from the Dell web site for Dell systems: https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000390990/secure-boot-transition-faq https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000347876/microsoft-2011-secure-boot-certificate-expiration
