Hi Guys and Gals, Thanks for all the help and information you've given us this past week while we've been updating the binaries :) We just updated everyone to 1.21 to keep everything on the same page. We had a small computational error that needed fixing, so the new versions of the applications fixed that. Please let us know if you're having any problems with these in this thread. There should be a 32 bit linux binary v1.21 available shortly. --Travis |

Good work so far. The first 1.21 went thru on Linux 64-Bit for me. :-) I noticed a more straight progress display now. Member of BOINC@Heidelberg and ATA! My BOINCstats |

Good work so far. good news! :) i updated the progress as well to be a bit more linear. did you notice any improvement in performance? |

Running OK on Mac PPC G5 OSX. The crunch times are unchanged. The first 55% (approx) of the task is pretty slow but it races through last 45%. Given what I have been reading about how much faster the Windows versions now are, is there any way you can optimize the Mac app any further, particularly the first part? Thanks. |

Some comparisons: Linux 64 bit performance is improved on a 5150 (by about 20-25 secs)but not on a P4 3.0 xeon. Windows P4 runs 2 minutes faster than Linux P4 32 bit on 2.8g hardware.P43.6 gig Linux 32 bit improved about 30 secs. |

Taking a relook at same hardware 32 bit -Linux vs Windows I see Linux is faster now by almost 2 min. |

Run time so far is about the same as 1.19, with a few about a min quicker, 9.5-10.5 min. Progress bar is still slow, but better (gain about 1/10th % each sec untill 55%, then jumps about .6%/sec). I do still have many wu's that are freezing at any given point. |

Hi all, I have 3 nearly identical hosts (P4 3.0Ghz Northwood's). Two are running XP (one Home and one Pro) and 1.21 seems to be working very well on these two. The other host is running W2K and I am seeing the same immediate app crash as the above user. I tried detaching and reattaching but this didn't help. That W2K host was working okay at app 1.19 as far as I know. |

Everything seems to be running smoothly, with a crunch time of about 5 minutes 35 seconds; that's 35 seconds less than I was getting before. CPU is an Athlon 64 running at 2.5GHz and OS is WinXP x86 SP3 RC. |

Hello, don't know if this is helping you: On one of my W2000 hosts the following message appears immediately after the start of the 1.21 app: The procedure entry point LogonUserExA could not be located in the dynamic link library ADVAPI32.dll. Ciao Stefan |

Hello, Dave compiled the 1.21 windows apps, so i'll have him take a look into these. |

Hello. I'm running Windows ME on 3 of my PCs and all are popping up computation errors for 1.21. They ran fine with 1.19. Thanks. Mike |

Dave compiled the 1.21 windows apps, so i'll have him take a look into these. Running one quad on Win XP, other two are Win 2003 x64. Both 1.21 apps fine, no significant speed difference on 32-bit vs. 64-bit. |

1.21 runs very slightly slower than 1.19 on my P4 2.4 XP32, and very slightly faster on my Celeron 2.93 XP32 - Not much in it really. Progress bar is still running slow on both (about a third slower than it should be). No problems so far :) Al. |

Hello. I'm running Windows ME on 3 of my PCs and all are popping up computation errors for 1.21. They ran fine with 1.19. Thanks. Mike OK... i've compiled a new linux 32 bit app and both windows apps as well,wich should take care of that issues on Win ME and W2k. I guess those will be up later today. The Application Saga Continues (Part 10) is on it's way... LOL ;) Join Support science! Joinc Team BOINC United now! |

i run win xp 32 and ubuntu linux 64 bit on the same machine. linux 64 bit is round 775 sec with 1.21 (no old results to compare) win xp 32 is round 640 sec with 1.19 linux 64bit: progress bar is now at 0.5 to 0.5 (form my site you can change to 0.8 to 0.2 -> its near to reality) no errors on my machine for the first 4 results win xp 32: no new results crunched by now, hope the first will start in 11 mins Matthias |

times for win XP 32 bit 1.19 round 630 sec 1.21 round 565 sec times linux 64 bit 1.21 round 770 same HW results uploaded without error restart boinc on linux 64 bit -> milkyway starts form last checkpoint. restart boinc on win xp 32 bit -> milkyway starts form last checkpoint. Matthias |
