Lord of Arcane

But how to improve the load efficiency of the main network of the computing power pool?

There is not much time left for Xia Duo to solve this problem. According to the current trend of the local mages in Everesca turning their energy to the snow melting competition, in a day or two at most, I am afraid that the number of main network users will not be enough to carry the sub-networks in various countries. .

Although the number of users of sub-networks in various countries continues to decline, the load capacity of the main network and the number of users of the main network are not a simple linear relationship. Instead, as the number of users increases, the load capacity will increase exponentially.

Correspondingly, as the number of access users decreases, the load capacity will decrease much faster than imagined.

If you want to solve this problem, you can only start from two aspects. One is to find ways to retain Evereska's access users, but this is only a temporary solution. If you want to fundamentally solve this problem, you must change the design of the computing power pool. architecture.

Neither method is easy to implement.

……

After thinking for a while, Xia Duo asked the mages in the gateway control hall to continue monitoring the status of the main network, while he quickly left the alliance headquarters and went straight to Yunding Mountain.

After a moment, he saw Elder Larian in the reception room of Yunding Tower, who had just returned from outside. After the two parties sat down, Larian took the lead and asked:

"Why did Lord Shado have time to come to my place today?"

"It's from Lingsi Network Research Center. I want to ask Elder Larian for help with something."

This matter cannot be bypassed by the Everriska Council of Elders, and Larian is the one who is most familiar with Shado in the Everriska Council of Elders. From the moment he planned to ask for help, Shado had thought about it. Secretive.

"What happened? If I can help, I will do my best." Larian asked while also giving a certain promise.

Therefore, Xia Duo briefly introduced the impact of the snow melting competition on the public computing power pool, and then made his request:

“I would like to ask Evreska to cooperate with the publicity, saying that the computing power pool is more suitable for watching games. This is indeed the case. Although using the computing power pool outside of research is somewhat wasteful, maintaining its normal operation is far more important. It’s more important than calculating these things.”

In fact, it is not just now. The more mages who use the computing power pool in the future, the more stable the operation of the computing power pool will be. Of course, on the other hand, for each country, the more profits from the computing power pool will be.

At least on the surface, the interests of both parties are completely consistent.

As for the inside, it depends on their own methods. Countries want to control the main network through their own sub-networks, and even further control the Lingsi Network Research Center. But doesn’t Xia Duo want the research center he controls to become the actual controller of the computing power pool?

Of course he wants to, but it's just difficult to realize. If there is an opportunity in the future, he will definitely not let it go.

As for the moment, there are not many things that Shado can promise to Everesca. There is only one thing, which is to increase the subsidies for mainnet access users. He still has a lot of say in this.

This kind of general subsidy, even if it is only raised by one point, is not a small amount over the years, not to mention that subsidies have always only gone up and basically never gone down.

In other words, with the first step ahead, Everesca can still ask for subsidies when other countries ask for higher subsidies.

Of course, this will all be decided based on the actual subsequent operation of the public computing power pool.

……

After Shado made the request, Larian thought for a moment and readily agreed. Of course, at this moment he could only represent himself, and could not represent the other elders of Everriska.

"This matter is good for everyone. I will discuss it with other elders. I believe they will not refuse."

"Then thank you so much Elder Larian."

After thanking him, Xia Duo got up and left. The gateway control center still had to keep an eye on him for the time being. Before leaving, he paused and added two more sentences:

"During the Snow Melting Competition, I will increase the bonus effect for those who have access to the main network of the computing power pool. If Elder Larian has any difficult research at hand, he can also take advantage of this time to tackle the problem. "The official operation stage will be continued later. We have to follow the rules set in advance. Even I don't have the authority to adjust such a wide range of bonus effects at will. "

……

After leaving the Genting Tower, Shado immediately returned to the alliance headquarters. He believed that Everriska would not refuse his request, but even if Everriska took action, the results would not be so fast.

In addition, as I said before, this is just a temporary solution. Even if you are lucky enough to pass this time, will it happen again if you encounter this situation again in the future?

By then, Everriska might have other thoughts.

Therefore, if we want to solve the root cause, we still need to start with the network architecture of the computing power pool Lingsi to solve the main network load problem from the root.

But for now, we need to deal with the symptoms first, and then we have the opportunity to come up with some fundamental solutions.

……

Alliance headquarters, gateway control hall.

Xia Duo, who came back from Yunding Tower, hardly relaxed for a moment, personally watching the load status of the main network. Almost two hours after he came back, the number of main network users began to slowly increase.

"Consultant Xia Duo, the load capacity of the main network has increased, but the pressure on sub-networks in other countries seems to be increasing."

"Don't be nervous, just think of it as a stress test."

Xia Duo is not worried about the continued increase in the number of access points to sub-networks in other countries. The increase in the number of access points to the main network will have a far greater impact on the load of the main network than the sub-network.

After all, it is still the trial operation stage of the computing power pool, and it is impossible for countries to do anything crazy in a short period of time. Everything will transition smoothly. When the official operation stage is reached, as long as the benefits of the main network are determined, there is no need to worry about the size of the main network under normal circumstances. Not enough anymore.

For example, Shado just mentioned to Elder Larian that the subsidy for those with access to the Everest card could be increased, and the cost of using advanced bonus effects could even be further reduced, etc.

Use the market to adjust and buy more time to solve the problem at its root.

……

Everriska, Evergreen Clubhouse.

One of the local broadcast points for the Snow Melting Competition, in this prestigious mage club, a pair of blazing eyes were staring at the projection space deliberately vacated in the center with great concentration.

Many mages left here immediately after experiencing the bonus from the computing power pool and watching the game, but more mages stayed. They sometimes watched the game, and sometimes communicated with their companions during the game.

"Did you understand the spell that player Ye Erlan just made? To be honest, I didn't understand it. Even with the addition of the computing power pool, I only roughly understood that he was planning the key spell from the beginning of the spell duel, but I still can't figure out exactly how to do it. Doesn't his opponent know how to counterattack?"

A moon elf mage with a green face had just finished speaking when an older looking mage at the next table began to explain:

"This is what elite and above mages who are good at spell duels are like this. They are extremely proficient in the principles of magic. They no longer stick to fixed spell structures during spell duels, but focus on the elemental level.

“Planning is carried out from the beginning of the duel, but it is not directed at a specific spell, but is based on the elements of the spell that have been completed and have not been countered.

"What you saw was the Ye Erlan player who finally completed the key winning spell under heavy cover, but what we saw was the process of him taking his time and forcing his opponent into a desperate situation little by little.

"Wonderful, really wonderful!"
