| | 1 | I ran a series of timing tests of alala with a randome Essence image. I was looking at the variation of the different psphot steps with the total number of objects. The question of interest here is how our throughput compares to what we may expect from PS1. |

| | 118 | Mark Pitts' analysis of 2MASS shows that we expect on average ~1500 |

| | 120 | the 10^7 deg^-2 saturation limit. Note that If I limit the moments analysis to |
| | 121 | the brighter sources (all that is really needed), I can predict the |
| | 122 | following timing for PS1 (scaling Npix by a factor of 3): |

| | 136 | With our initial cluster of 16 boxes (64 cpus), we will be on the hairy edge of keeping up with the data if we are running at the full rate. However, by the time the survey starts, we should have two sets of boxes, giving us about a factor of 2 headroom. Though note that I'm ignoring any of the ''other'' steps of phase 2, not to mention any of the other survey modes. On the other hand, I'm also ignoring night-time, weather, longer exposures, and any other overheads. Still, it sounds like we will be tight for the first part of the survey until we get the third set of boxes (~Apr 2008). |
