Sorry about the 7 WUs.
swbell started enforcing it's 1 ip address rule and totaly hosed my home network.
Linksys router to the rescue!
It should be here tomorrow.

PS How do Rags &/or Manex get those amazing times consistently?
Is there a way to split up a WU among processors?

I don't think it is possible to split WUs...
Rags and Manex have some very fast machines. Simple as that.

BTW. Has anyone checked out the new SETI stats(not Martins)? pretty cool.

[cjolley]

It can't be that simple.
My machine is a P3-650@923 with 256 megs of ram.
All else being equal, that would put thier cpus at something like 2000mz
So, I wonder what the "else" is.
eg, Linux-vs-Win98, more memory(!?), cached WUs, Alpha-vs-P3 etc.

Well, I did a search and found.... http://forums.murc.ws/ubb/Forum12/HTML/000034.html

great big ol' huge can o' worms

Sorry about that Rags....

I'm still curious though,

[Manex]

Chuck, actually in my case, it is just that simple . I crunch WUs on a 4-way HP L2000 compute server using the 2.4 command line client compiled for HP-UX. I'm not sure exactly how fast the processors are in MHz, but they have rather large L2 caches, 1MB at least per processor I think. I've heard that a large L2 helps with getting the time down. I can finish a WU in just under 3 hours if no other processes are running on the server.

As for Rags, I think he has his rig pretty much tweaked to the max, so his results aren't typical by any means. I can't touch his stats using my home rig either...

Cheers!

That's how I run my WU's in 6 to 7 hours on my normal P3-450 with 256Mb RAM. Just run Windows, and minimize the 1.06 GUI, let it run in the system tray. And let it be about the only thing to run on your system.

I've had a couple of 5.5 hours and one of just under 5 hours. I'm glad to be back in the top 10 of fastest

[cjolley]

Hmmmmmm..... interesting
The tax collection system I designed is geting it's own server!
A Compac 8000
4 2meg cache Xeon 550s and 2 gigs of ram
I'm just sure we need to burn-in that sucker before we trust it with a govenment database!
You guys got any sugestions for a cpu intensive app we could use?
chuck

[cjolley]

Manex,
WOW! http://www.specbench.org/osg/cpu95/r...927-03869.html

[Hecubus]

Bwahahaha, cjolley!
I think it would be totally irresponsible of you if you *didn't* burn in that new server with a very computationally intensive app like seti. For at least a week.

jms,

You mean the new "personal stats" page? With the 10 last results? Or have you found more new goodies?

Martin

[jms]

Martin,
just the new personal stats, kinda nice to view your last 10 WUs. But there are beta-stats for gaussians and spikes too. But you probably already knew that.

Jan

[MegaManX4]

No, i didn't noticed it yet. But it really is cool. Now I can see that one of our 3 Members send a WU with 23 Hrs .

Mega

[Kruse]

Cool!

And of course you can view more than your last 10 WUs, just change the value for "nresults" in the url...

[MegaManX4]

Hihi, will look my last 100 WU's now!
