Subject: caSnooper output report question
From: Kevin Tsubota <[email protected]>

Hi,
I've built caSnooper under R3.14.6 for solaris-sparc-gnu host.
I have a couple of questions regarding the output report between the GUI and
command line.

Below are 3 number output reports.  The first and third reports were
generated from the CaSnooper MEDM GUI via the report button with:
	Check Top N:        = 10
	Print Top N:        = 10
	Print Over N-Sigma: = -1
	Print Over Hz:      = -1

The second report is from the command line.

My questions are:

- Why does the MEDM report output not have the "PP", "CPP" PVs until after
I've run the command line report?  I've verified this multiple times by
stopping are restarting caSnooper and the GUIs but not the IOCs (EPICS
R3.13.0Beta12) so the broadcasts are always there.

- Why are the rates between the two report generation types different?
Report 2 "PP" = 46hz, report 3 "PP" = 5hz.

- Finally what is the "request rate" on the GUIs really telling me?

Thank you in advance.

Kevin
