    keyword=DAQ problems (resolved)

    There were two DAQ problems which have been solved:

    1. The DAQ had a high deadtime because ROC1 had a duplex mismatch.
    I thought I had a 1/2 duplex kernel there, but apparently switching
    to full duplex on the network makes the performance better. Not
    sure how this slipped past me, as I recall doing high-rate tests ...
    anyway, fixed.

    2. The end-of-run script (creates halog info, etc) was very slow,
    leading to failure of CODA to end a run. The cause had to do
    partly with invalid EPICS variables and partly the version
    of caget. Fixed for now, but I need to do some work later today
    to get a good 1st list of variables which then others may modify.
