1) Message boards : Application Code Discussion : GPU app teaser (Message 9517) Posted 1 Feb 2009 by sandro Post: So where is the link to the zip file?? Sorry in reply to Message 9513 here http://www.file-upload.net/download-1414247/Milkyway_0.16_GPU_SSE3_x64.zip.html
2) Message boards : Application Code Discussion : GPU app teaser (Message 9341) Posted 29 Jan 2009 by sandro Post: [quote] I have an ATI Radeon X1900 in my Mac. Two questions. 1) "...that means HD38x0, HD4670?? and HD48x0" What the heck does that mean? Which cards/chips are we talking about? 2) Will this app work on Macs? your X1900 will not work. you need at least a card with the RV670 chip (3850, 3870) or with RV770 chip (4830, 4850, 4870). In principle all ATIs starting from the RV670 should work, but sometimes the double precision is locked by either the bios or driver (4670 refused to work)
3) Message boards : Number crunching : Jan 24 credit change complaints/comments here (Message 9085) Posted 25 Jan 2009 by sandro Post: The problem to give the right credits for a WU will be even more funny when the GPU-apl is ready ;) Which will be MUCH faster than the SSE2/SSSE3 Win-versions.
4) Message boards : Application Code Discussion : optimized app suggestion (Message 8862) Posted 22 Jan 2009 by sandro Post: (assuming there isn't anyone from there already posting here) he is an active user here in the mw board, dont worry ;)
5) Message boards : Number crunching : Application v0.8 released (Message 8497) Posted 16 Jan 2009 by sandro Post: The ones with the error, are you guys using linux? yes, they are using linux. have a look into their task ID and computer ID there ;)
6) Message boards : Number crunching : New faster application? (Message 8469) Posted 16 Jan 2009 by sandro Post: Yeah this is fine. It would be nice to see how it does with a couple different inputs, just to make sure. Is this optimized app done with compiler flags or has there been significant code changes? If the 2nd is the case it would be nice if they were shared so we could update the stock app. Im not shure but i think they "hand-optimzed" the code rather using compiler flags, dont know whtat is significant for you ;) . but better to ask them directly.
7) Message boards : Number crunching : New faster application? (Message 8367) Posted 15 Jan 2009 by sandro Post: Faster applications returns incorrect results. Original app: fitness: -3.046272445362277 "Faster app": fitness: -3.046289346362010 sesef, could you also check your faster app you are using please? which applications do you mean? sorry i thought in your team there where also optimized apps used made by some of your teammade. i had the user mindc in my mind. nevermind if im wrong.

Original app: fitness: -3.046272445362277 "Faster app": fitness: -3.046289346362010 Thx for the info. i linked this thread to p3d, so they can have a look into it. sesef, could you also check your faster app you are using please? Invalid results are of course not the intention of the opt-apps
9) Message boards : Number crunching : New faster application? (Message 8344) Posted 15 Jan 2009 by sandro Post: Can anyone tell me which DL to use for 64bit and which one to use for 32bit windoz? they run on both, 32 and 64bit
10) Message boards : Number crunching : New faster application? (Message 8298) Posted 14 Jan 2009 by sandro Post: [quote]Thanks for the links. Let me know when you find one of these fast/optimised MW clients for Windows and the link, please. all of the apps i gave the link are for 32 and 64bit windows
11) Message boards : Number crunching : New faster application? (Message 8295) Posted 14 Jan 2009 by sandro Post: Thanks for the links. How do I figure out which I have? I would guess sse or sse2. My pc's a P4 xp. if its a pre-Prescot P4 take the SSE2, if it is a Prescot oder cedar mill take the SSE3. or just use cpu-z to look which extensions you can run.
12) Message boards : Application Code Discussion : Does someone have a faster app for windows they can share? (Message 8293) Posted 13 Jan 2009 by sandro Post: Optimized apps with SSE SSE2 SSE3 available. see here http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/forum_thread.php?id=551
13) Message boards : Number crunching : New faster application? (Message 8292) Posted 13 Jan 2009 by sandro Post: Well I suppose I should add: One that someone is willing to share? Curious that nowbody linked it already, we have them ;) Their are SSE,SSE2,SSE3,SSSE3 and SSE4.1 optimized apps already available, you just have to read in our forum ;) http://www.planet3dnow.de/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=353616 The P3D Member Gipsel and twodee made apps with following extensions: with SSE a WU take ~1500sec with SSE2 ~400sec with SSE3 ~300sec with SSE4.1 ~200sec all on a C2Q@3ghz because Gipsel and twodee made thier app independtly from each other their are sometimes 2 versions per apps. their are aproximatly the same with minor differences in speed. you may also need a app-info.xml file SSE Version for older PCs: http://www.file-upload.net/download-1319985/MW_SSEV2.zip.html and here http://139.30.40.11/Milkyway_SSE.zip SSE2: http://www.2shared.com/file/4437840/f43e8ff7/MW-SSE2.html and here http://www.file-upload.net/download-1311757/astronomy_sse2_app.exe.html SSE3: http://www.file-upload.net/download-1319985/MW_SSEV2.zip.html SSE2+SSE3 http://www.file-upload.net/download-1320653/MW.rar.html the sse4.1 is not availible at the moment Gispel is working on a GPU-app fÃ¼r ATI cards. he is searching volunteers for testing his GPU-app under win64 with ATI cards. if some wants to test it, please pm gipsel in the p3d board If the GPU-app is working a WU could be crunched in 20sek (but 1 cpu core would probably be used also
14) Message boards : Number crunching : @MW staff: credit limit and credit level (Message 6291) Posted 19 Nov 2008 by sandro Post: I guess important is ,every time these Germans start complaining or crying around to start rethink the way the project works! ok folks let us now celebrate the Germanization of MW ! Congrats to the most stupid post i ever read here ;) btw you know that both, Milksoap and crunch3r are german do you?
15) Message boards : Number crunching : I think you made your point !! (Message 5521) Posted 17 Oct 2008 by sandro Post: Then we are all on a level playing field. again, this shows that you are not interested in the project itselfs, you just want others beeing as capable as you. The project is able to make 100x more science in the same time, so a optimized app it actually good for them. milksaop is a teamless cruncher and he is aware that his account ist a "throw-away"-account, so no team or single cruncher should be threatenend Go play in someone elses sandbox and stop causing trouble. speaking about sandboxes, thats exact the image i have in mind when i read your and your fellows posts. a crying baby in a sandbox cause another have a bigger shovel than you.
16) Message boards : Number crunching : I think you made your point !! (Message 5517) Posted 17 Oct 2008 by sandro Post: Why wait to break the project you said yourself it's been going on for months without any indication from the project as to when or if they will implement it. Don't talk about it JUST DO IT or are you to AFRAID ? you afraid you won't be seen as an upstanding honest fella of the boinc community. Don't make threats you and your cronies are not prepared to commit to. You have no credibility left. So YOU would kill the project if you had the opportunity? Good to know. You and your fellows are the reason why the optimized apps from crunch3r and milksoap shouldnt be shared. All of your post show the same subliminal tendency of what your REAL issues are: You are jealous and want that optimized app so you can make credits.
