Moo: New Version

[Maxwell]

Good news for Trigggl?

I just released v1.01 of our wrapper application. In addition to previous 32-bit Windows versions there's now versions for 64-bit Linux. Both Stream and CUDA are available for both.

Some of the major changes in this release:


* Overactive hang detection code fixed and it now takes into account relative speed of the used card. This should fix many failures and even slowness seen by users especially on CUDA platform.
* Limited retries (no checkpoint or premature exit) to ten (10) so that there's no chance for an endless loop.
* Added support for setting core used by the client. I'll add a preference for this soon. Allows advanced users to set best performing core based on their knowledge or client benchmarks.
* There's now a default Distributed.net ID used if one is not specified in preferences. For now it's simply "u_<userid>@moowrap.net" where <userid> is your User ID of your account on this project. Yes, you can still set a custom one in your preferences.
* And some other minor improvements and fixes around the code.

After having asked DrPop we decided to turn on this RSS feed.

I just added it. (WOOT- first task as admin)

If it does not work, or look strange please let us know.

Admin. Beer?? That mean Free Beer?

One question about this project. I just put in the second 5870 and now have run times of 600+ gpu, 600+ cpu. Credits are 6k sometimes and 4k other times. My box with one 5970 is doing 900+ gpu, cpu 9.5 for 9k. Credits may be similar but large cpu usage. Worth it? I'm ony using 3 of my 4 cores now. I'll try it running only 2 cores and leaving 2 cores for the gpu, see what happens.
