Is it normal that FET under GNU/Linux manages to give me a timetable about 1h 46 mn while under WINDOWS10, I give it more than 3h 40 mn without succeeding.
Is that FET is better optimized with GNU/Linux than with WINDOWS10 ?
On my computer GNU/Linux finishes in 33 seconds, and under Windows in 44 seconds for the same file and same starting random seed. So it is 25% faster on GNU/Linux.
You need to start with the same FET version, same file, and same starting random seed to compare the behavior.
I have started with the same data file, the same version of Fet but not the same seed of random number generator.
But every time I feel that FET under Linux is faster.
On average it is 25% faster. But why don't you use the same random seed?
Because I didn't know it's important.
It's important only if you want to obtain the same behavior on both systems, so you can compare exactly.

Thank you Liviu. Now I know it's important. I read that
"The random seed before the generation of a timetable (the X and Y components) is saved on disk in the corresponding timetables directory, so that you can simulate again the same generation after that."
You are welcome :) You can report us the exact times for the same random seeds on GNU/Linux and Windows, on a simulation that finishes correctly.

Ok no problem.
Maybe you can start a new topic in the adequate part of the forum where users of fet under windows and Gnu/ linux could report us theirs comparisons.
You are my guest to start such a topic :) Where you consider best.
