archstats-question

Heya,

I was having a look at ArchStats and was wondering who is running the system with 1Kn memory?

Lowest system memory:          1 kB

I suppose this is not really true or am I wrong?

thanks and greetings,

Michel

LOL

It might be a router or something.... no idea. Probably just bad reporting info

Re: archstats-question

I find it strange too. Maybe the system has no memory, just swap.
There's also:
Lowest system swap:          2 kB

Re: archstats-question

What about this:

Highest kernel version:          2.6.9-stefan-ARCH

I use Archstats with 2.6.12.4 and I know someone else must also use Archstats with a higher kernel version than that.

Also:

diffutils-2.8.1-2: |########################################| (100.1%)      [978/977]
popt-1.7-2: |########################################|      (100.1%)      [978/977]

How can it be over 100%?

It's the way the versions are compared.  9 is bigger than 1 so 2.6.9-stefan-ARCH is a bigger (higher) version than 2.6.12.4. Could be something else, though.

For the 101% usage, I don't know.  The archstats changed server so maybe something happened in the migration.  :?

And more people have diffutils than have coreutils? Shouldn't that be, oh, I dunno, 110% or something?

I kind of question the whole thing for several reasons.

Re: archstats-question

The diffutils and popt are now at 100%.

diffutils-2.8.1-2:           |########################################|      (100.0%)      [977/977]
popt-1.7-2:           |########################################|      (100.0%)      [977/977]

Personally, I don't think that the archstat is intended to provide scientific statistics. There are some outdated packages listed in there.  If you consider all the versions of coreutils, you would probably get about 100%.  It's possible that people run archstats once and then forget about it or move to another distro.  I think it's just there to provide an overview: if 900 users have pkg A and just 10 have pkg B, then you know that pkg A is more popular.
