Put 4 cores on it to test the waters.
I'll see your 4 and raise you 6....Quote:

I don't feel good about hacking proprietary hardware, but as long as it's for science, I'll throw a dual core on it.Quote:

I am getting 290 credits per hour. What are you getting?Quote:

To be clear, my 290 c/h was per core. Not per CPU.Quote:

I figured that... ;)Quote:

Alright; paused Almere and will try this for a bit. If it can match AQUA (nothing ever seems to) I'll be happy. ;)
There apparently is no checkpointing. I stopped boinc about halfway through some tasks to remove my Primegrid app_info file. Started boinc back up Droid is back to 0. They're no going very fast. I hope the credits are worth it.
Hmmm...what OS and CPU are you using? On an AMD PhenomII 810 quad core O/C @ 3GHz, running Windows 7 64bit, mine are showing about 25% completed after only 9 mins!
EDIT: The O/Ced AthlonII quad @ 3.6GHz is doing even better - 50% after only 14.5 mins!
Just to be clear. Up until the release of the new app about 6 hours ago, tasks ran about 5 minutes and paid 29 credits. It looks like the project has since released tasks that run much longer, and pay 115. So you can tell which tasks you have by what they pay.
Well, I knocked out 100k today on less than half my machines. Something I could never do with Aqua...Quote:

I to am getting validate errors. And one of my P4s cannot crunch it at all. Every wu gives a computation error after 1 or 2 seconds of crunching. :((Quote:

Yeah these new long WUs arent paying as much. Looks like Primegrid PPS Sieve is still the best for 64 bit CPU.
Also, DNET is trying to bruteforce a 72 bit key and it's 1.3% complete right now. This project is trying a 1024 bit key! I hope they're not bruteforcing too, this could take a while lawl.

Just read their boards and the high credits per are here to stay. Also, they claim there will be GPU work for this project in about a month.
That is what they said. But since then, the credits have dropped significantly. The task run time has increased, and so has the credits awarded. But not by as much. So we are making less c/h now. Still very good! But not as good as it was.Quote:

I may just have the perfect combination of hardware and software for this project, (AMD Quads running Win7 64bit), but I have no errors or invalid WUs since 10PM last night. So, in 12 hours, my 2 quads have pumped out over 20K credits. That's pretty huge for CPU power.
I am rigth there also....I am closing in on 2.000 CS in just 2 hours of crunching!! According to my math....WE COULD DOMINATE THIS PROJECT!Quote:

They exported yesterday, but it seems the xml files there haven't been updated. They've got a thread about it in there forums, so they are aware...
We could dominate this project if some of the big CPU crunchers like Hankey, Mumps, CB, Dr. Bob, etc...could get a quick jump on it. (If they want to, of course). With the crazy CPU power this team has, it could be a nice #1 for us.
I seem to be having major problems with this project I have been crunching on 16 cores for hours and have only gotten a little over 500 credits. :(
Looking into the issues further and remembering someone saying there are no recovery points, I found the problem. I had WU's running for over 6 hours and were only half way done.
I set the CPU usage restrictions from their default 25% to 0 and it looks like this is going to solve the problem.
Looks like the 1.01 linux 64 bit app had validation errors. they released a 1.02 app make sure you abort your 1.01 WUs and get the new app. I got crap for credit due to the validation issues so far.
I think my posts must be invisible or something. ;)
I see you! There you are! *Points at zombie67*Quote:

HEY GUYS! I thought I saw a new LINUX app today! Oh...there you are, Zombie, how ya doin'? b-( :D
Now if they let me download it...Quote:
