Its been a snail's pace thanks to arbit errors and the debugging involved. We have adopted the modular approach making separate files for all the functions involved, keeping the related ones in the same file. What it has cost us at a speed of around 0.25x for just 3dhwt is a time of around 15 seconds for a 100 frame chunk. Thats at least better than the 38 minutes it once took! I seriously wish this gives a good compression over the usual stuff for all the time its taking... and this was just for order 1 wavelets! Well, we do have some optimizations already in mind; leaving apart the init 2 without X and gdm that we have come down to.
We have a few major hurdles to overcome though - one is the time factor, this time meaning the deadline for the BTP after which it is as good as dead; a second staring us in the face is the disappearance of nodes from the cluster owing to the upgradation of the lab that's going on... No we still won't be given the new ThinkSmarts to work on and no we (=>at least I) don't intend to appeal either for it'll mean wasting another weekend over installation of the components.
