Teams stomped by SETI.USA on NFS@Home

[Crazybob]

Put 3 I7's, a quad and a dual core on it. Hope that help. Might do more later?

Darn it Al, you bumped me out of 3rd on the team place today! . I'm gonna...I'm gonna...you know, I'm just going to put this phone down and get busy moving stuff again! LOL...great to see such a team effort guys! Crank 'er up! Let's throw this NFS@ around on the Mosh pit a little and show LAF who's boss.

Er....wait a minute...this isn't one of LaF's pet projects is it?

You'll get it back. I'm totally shut down until tomorrow while I reconfigure my boxes...and straighten out all the issues that creates. I'll be along soon.

We are such a team. Aren't we?

With machines with more than 1.3 GB per thread you should only run the 16e applications because it where you have more credit per wu, 65.
So you can go here

http://escatter11.fullerton.edu/nfs/...subset=project

and set config like this:

lasieved - app for RSALS subproject, uses less than 0.5 GB memory: no
lasievee - work nearly always available, uses up to 0.5 GB memory: no
lasievef - used for huge factorizations, uses up to 1 GB memory: yes
lasieve5f - used for huge factorizations, uses up to 1 GB memory: yes

Also in global settings at "http://escatter11.fullerton.edu/nfs/prefs.php?subset=global" set

Swap space: use at most: 98% of total
Memory: when computer is in use, use at most: 100% of total
Memory: when computer is not in use, use at most: 100% of total

I need a week to be at full power. Meanwhile we can easily go up to 4th place.

I told Greg that we were going hard this time. Hope we can generate more wu's although the ones created so far are still enough for the current NFS@Home output.

We are still losing about 15 to 16K for today to LAF but we as them are speeding up and some team mates are now entering the battle. Most of them were already there that counts a lot.

We need you, as fast as you can be ready, STE\/E crunching day gave us a burst and we are now on a better position to strike back. The difference between teams is 238,473 at this moment.

Ricardo, I will be back to Portugal at the end of the month so by then I can turn on two machines and make more than 30k per day.

I got my 5000 hrs in PPS LLR, so I've moved 16 cores over to NFS, along with 11 cores from 2 of the reconfigured boxes. Another 10 should start crunching sometime tomorrow as I reconfigure the last 2 boxes.

I am happy
