schestowitz> Thank you for the swift reply. They do use objective c. I have opencv working already. I shall have another look through the code and see if I can migrate it over. The opencv port for iOS is much more basic than the android one I think - in so far as the java one looks like it's wrapped up in objects etc.Feb 03 19:00

schestowitz> If it is ok - may I return to you if I have further questions?Feb 03 19:00

schestowitzI think speed is not an issue, but if people don't get pages delivered, then it's a real problem which needs fixing.Feb 03 19:21

schestowitzCould it be that Xen is optimised to use all the RAM it has available, as was the case back in the days it had just 2 GB of RAM?Feb 03 19:23
