21) Message boards : Number crunching : Reverting to Stock (Message 8809) Posted 21 Jan 2009 by caspr Post: Yep, that's what I saw. Future WU are .12 apps. Anything left from before seem to run under the old app (unless you delete it (I really need to do this)-I suspect it then has a conniption fit!) Hopefully Travis will give a bit more of a reprieve. I've only got a few more to go of what I think are OK apps, but have been declared deficient. Rick The last time I reset Apps. I just did a quick detach / reattach and it worked fine. I guess since the wu's that I've got are still validating I'll stay with the .07 App. till it stops?

25) Message boards : Number crunching : Bad set of WUs ! (Message 7624) Posted 11 Dec 2008 by caspr Post: I'm crunching in 64 windoz right now but I can switch over to 64 Linux and check it out.
26) Message boards : Number crunching : credit comparison to other projects (Message 7347) Posted 3 Dec 2008 by caspr Post: I'm not gonna get all philosophical on this but I WAS getting about 9k here (milsop's app.) and now less than 1.5k per day.( new opp app) I'd just like to see a reasonable adjustment. again, how does that compare to other projects? also if you were using the optimized application on older machines chances are it's not bumping up to near the credit limit anymore, so you're seeing more of a penalty. I'm running an '03server 3.0 xeon DDR2-400 Ecc Reg's So its a Quad... kinda. EDIT: Is this about bumping the client or fair credits per cpu? EDITx2 Sorry I'm not running an i7!

I am back up and running again. I'll be anxious to see if someone comes up with a new optimized application. With the new credit calculations, I have some systems now that are getting a better credit per CPU second on Seti! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just a statement made on another thread!

29) Message boards : Number crunching : work availability (Message 7297) Posted 3 Dec 2008 by caspr Post: Which of the new lengths of wu's is going to be the one used for time being? It should be the longer ones, in fact right now the assimilator should only be generating the longer WUs. Considering I'm only getting 15% to 20% of the credit I used to,... are you planning to do anything about that in the future?

Encourage the Cross-Project Parity crusaders to see the errors of their ways and to come up with a better plan. Hear-Hear... I've heard this somewhere before!! ......DITTO?
31) Message boards : Number crunching : credit comparison to other projects (Message 7245) Posted 2 Dec 2008 by caspr Post: OK, The first full day of crunching the new opp. app. I dropped from about 9k using milsop's app. to about 1.5k with the new app. Yep, I think a little adjustment is in order. I dont expect to make as much as with Milsop's app. but I'd like to see about half as much anyway.
32) Message boards : Number crunching : credit comparison to other projects (Message 7229) Posted 2 Dec 2008 by caspr Post: 50/h but on which cpu? I'm getting nearly 50 credits/hour on my AMD X2 5200 under Windows 32-Bit, too. Would do a bit better under Linux 64-Bit I guess, but I haven't tried it out yet, my Linux-hard disk is a bit corrupt and I haven't repaired it yet. ;-) Don't just think Linux is faster than Windoz! 64 bit windoz on Milsops app. did a WU in 10 mins. and it took 12.5 mins on Linux 64,.... same box, dual boot, 3.0 Xeon,...'03 server With DDR2-400 Ecc Reg's
33) Message boards : Number crunching : Faster application (links inside) (Message 7221) Posted 2 Dec 2008 by caspr Post: What am I doing wrong? I am getting no work. I detached, and reattached, and installed the faster app. The old faster app worked great, but I am getting no work? You must delete the app..xml file.. There is no "faster" app anymore, the production app is now the optimized app. Just detach/reattach and leave it alone! There is no longer a faster app. Everyone is now on a level playing field! As it should be!
34) Message boards : Number crunching : I'm not getting a single WU (Message 7216) Posted 2 Dec 2008 by caspr Post: Bob, just do a quick detach/reattach of MW and you'll get work! Edit: You will have to do it on all you're box's if you don't use an acct. manager
35) Message boards : Number crunching : new workunit limit (Message 7212) Posted 2 Dec 2008 by caspr Post: I am getting no work sent? Now for almost a day? Rick, do a detach / reattach and you should get work.
36) Message boards : Number crunching : credit comparison to other projects (Message 7208) Posted 2 Dec 2008 by caspr Post: With the 04 app. I'm making 20CPH on a 3.0 xeon xp64 pro
37) Message boards : Number crunching : new workunit limit (Message 7195) Posted 1 Dec 2008 by caspr Post: That option is not available in Milky Way preferences, Bigred. Just checked and it is there, "run test applications"?
38) Message boards : Number crunching : credit comparison to other projects (Message 7191) Posted 1 Dec 2008 by caspr Post: ... 50 credits per hour seems to be a happy medium from the low projects and the higher paying projects. 100% agreed!! ;) DITTO!
39) Message boards : Number crunching : credit comparison to other projects (Message 7158) Posted 1 Dec 2008 by caspr Post: And now on to everybody's favorite subject :) Since we've moved over to the new app, I'm wondering how everyones credit rate compares to seti@home (which we'll be trying to use as a benchmark). Why use seti as a benchmark? Run your own project! Personally, Ive seen my credits cut in half just since yesterday with the "new" app. and I expect them to go down more with the first full day of work being processed.
