Hi Paul,
Thanks to your addition in Chapter 9, it is getting more and more
convincing.
Glad you like them! A little more to go...
However, the X-axis label in Figures 9.5, 9.9, and 9.16 is
"Number of CPUs/Threads."
At first glance, I read it as "Number of CPUs per Threads."
It took a few seconds for me to realize that it means
"Number of CPUs or Threads."
In Figure 4.10, the x-axis label is "Number of CPUs (Threads)."
I think this is better to avoid ambiguity.
What do you think?
Sold!!! ;-)
Made this change with your Signed-off-by.
Hi,
So, I searched "CPUs/Threads" in the pdf and 10 other labels hit.
See the list below. (Sorry, but with page numbers of 2 column pdf.)
* p.38 Figure 5.3
* p.77 Figure 6.22
* p.78 Figure 6.23 and in the text just below
* p.166 Figures 10.7, 10.8, and 10.9
* p.168 Figures 10.13 and 10.14
* p.169 Figure 10.15
* p.177 Figure 10.29
These figures existed before your recent rewrite of Chapter 9,
and I never found them ambiguous. So I might have been on a
different planet last night or something...
If you think it is still better to modify them, please consider
doing so.
There is another "CPUs/Threads" in p.437 at the definition of
"Linearizable," but it is not at all ambiguous in the context.
Thanks, Akira
Thanx, Paul
