First!

Thanks Rattledagger!
Welcome to the new crunchers, your help is badly needed as DSL production has risen a lot in the last week.

Fred

[Rattledagger]

Yes, now then the network-problems seems to be solved, the production can start again, and we can recruit more crunchers.

[Liquid Snake]

2nd

We almost got OcUK but they managed to pull away Well, crunch on! Just loaded Genome on my Celeron machine. You know, the one that too 40hrs to do a SETI WU

[Jorden]

Yippie!! I can send my units again
The two 'lost' ones were sent yesterday. Only strange is that I got a new unit in now (named input.pdb.2) which it will never ever use

Jord.

[Liquid Snake]

Hehe, running two Genome instances worked. No noticable slowdowns, so I'm getting pretty much double production

[Guyver]

WooHoo - 3000 UNITS!!!!

[Bursar]

Keep trying lads, we(OcUK) have pulled away from you that little bit further

[Guyver]

OK - System changes now in effect.

System #1 - W2K Pro - Dual PIII-933 running 3 sessions of Genome (each getting 66% of a processor)
System #2 - WME - Mono PIII-1000 running 1 session of Genome (may switch to 2)
System #3 - Linux - Mono PIII-850 running 2 sessions of Genome
System #4 - Linux - Mono PIII-650@866 running 2 sessions of Genome

Oh yeah, almost forgot
System #5 - WME - Mono PIII-800 running 1 session of Genome (GF's PC)

Hope this helps...

Guyver

P3-750@825, 256MB RAM at 2-2-2 on Win2K - two sessions of Genome

Celeron 466, 96MB RAM on Win98se - one session of Genome

P166MMX, 32MB RAM on Linux - two sessions of Genome

P133, 32MB RAM on Win95 - one session of Genome

[CHHAS]

Duron 650@900, 196 MB ram, running 2 sessions.
Celeron 366, 32 mb ram, running 1 session.

Hopefully the Celeron will be replaced by a P3-500 (Katmai) in the near future.

[lurqa]

Isn't it a little bit suspicius that it is possible to obtain better throughput when running two processes in parallel?



Two processes should really screw up the L2 cache and produce less.



I suspect there is a possibility of either a design flaw or intentional waiting in the client software.

[Jorden]

One system, P3-450, 256Mb RAM, WinME, running 2 sessions.
Using WinRAMBoost to optimize my memory every time a unit is ready

[Liquid Snake]

Shhh, don't tell anyone our little secret. Thanks to Jord for discovering it

[Rattledagger]

Since it seems some is getting much better throughput running two instances of Genome, it's interesting to find out how much faster than seti@home the same machine is. I guess most has run seti@home on the same machine before, so no new times must be made here.

To calculate, use this:
seti@home cpu-time * [0,3 * aa-length / run-time g@h] = ?

If running multiple genome@home-instances, add together the [ ] before multiplying with seti@home cpu-time. Remember to use run-time, not cpu-time for genome, then running multiple genome@home-instances.

As example, for this machine:
aa-length 58; run-time 13 h; seti@home-cmd 3.03, 10h/wu average.

10 * [0,3 * 58 / 13] = 13,38
Therefore, genome@home is 13,38 times faster than seti@home.

Remember to use seti@home ver. 3.03-times then comparing, preferably cmd-versions.
