3rd Experiments and ROOT meeting
Description
Schedules, feedback, discussions between ROOT and experiments / frameworks.
Present: Marcin, Walter, Peter, Marco Cl, Guilherme, Philippe, Axel, Danilo
ROOT would like experiments to check the memory consumption. ROOT had patches in Clang to support relocatable builds and we'd like to make sure this does not have impacts on RSS
Marcin asks about the status of the endiannes switch for ROOT files and the new cppyy based pyroot
1) The switch of endianness got a very low priority because we verified that the price of switching it is negligible thanks to instructions in silicon that address this conversion.
2) The new PyROOT is due next year, with perhaps a technology preview in May.
Marco asks if the Conda prototype to distribute ROOT is based on the work of Daniela Remenska.
Yes, Chris started from her scripts in order to put together his demonstrator.
Peter: blocker: static method in a class in a library used in a method of a class in another library - there is a workaround for this, which consists in injecting the needed header by hand.
Atlas: there is a problem which does not depend on ROOT which prevented testing of the 6.16 branch
LHCb: Not aware of the status of the builds against master. Some obvious things to be checked, the builds seem fine but some failing tests need to be crosschecked.
CMS (David sent report by mail): CMS picked up the tip of the master branch as of last week and doesn't have
any issues with it. So no new problems to talk about (CMS have a continuing validation issue with 6.14 that is waiting on someone to do some work on it
