No problem Newberg and Blurf, I\we love you anyway. :)

We definitely love you Simplex0 ;) I'm MW user of the day. Do I get double credits?

Yes, on Wednesday and Thursday.

Sounds great, but I wasn't crunching here during the summer and won't feel comfortable about taking the credits I didn't earn.


You can make a small donation, then you can take the double Credit and feel comfortable ;-)

Yes, of course I could. But I think my small donation of 100,000,000 credits to this project is comfort enough.

Hello Sir Peeper. I'd shake a leg or they won't know which way you rattle. How's the shrubbery?

I assume with an i7 quad core with Hyper-Threading and 8 processing threads I would get 48 work units at one time.

My question;

You seem to imply that all GPU contribution was by ATI HD5870. I was under the impression that most of the early contribution came from ATI HD4850 and HD4870s and that the use of the ATI HD5870 was relatively new to the project. How much GPU contribution is currently from ATI HD4850/70 rather than HD5870?

10) Message boards : Number crunching : CPU crunching - A few questions. (Message 44334)

I've stopped trying to run any CPU Milkyway on any on my PCs despite being in a Milkyway competition. Most of my PCs are 'old' AND they all seem to drag out the finish time and I have aborted WUs despite having crunched in excess of 20 hours but creeping up to 50+ more to go. I used to be able to run Milkyway CPU WUs on these which certainly took less than 20 hours. Sorry I can't answer your questions and hope you find your answers so we can all run MW CPU WUs.

I take it you mean the American holiday yesterday with some Americans taking a day of vacation today (Friday) to make a four-day weekend ?

Or are we talking about the annual year end holidays in a month or so?

All my ATI cards are now getting 12 WUs and crunching two at a time, in hope that the Retupmoc competition continues. ...Until it all goes pear shaped again at which time they'll all be switching over to pear@shape again.

This is very bad timing with the Retupmoc Milky Way Challenge going on this week.

-Mike

Let me know if it gets going again. It's a little strange to be sitting around in the middle of a race.

They stopped work generation because there were duplicate assimilators running, which was messing up credit.

Yes, that was so. But since then they have reported a corrupt disk (which may have caused all the credit problems, so they say), and now they have stopped work generation to try and get the assimilator/validator to catch up.

I have to say that just a day or two before the triple stamps were on offer I decided I should get a few more credits in MilkyWay, get them up to a hundred million. I didn't exactly rush over here and neither did I have any other reason to point my ATI guns at MW than when I decided to point them at any other project. Perhaps I had some mystical intuition to bring me here just before the MW servers got so friendly. Perhaps they got friendly because I arrived here, having missed me so much. Who knows? I certainly didn't think I'd get to my hundred million so quickly.
