I'm working on a bunch of things for the stats sheet, one of which is the team GHZ active/day.

Well, to be able to calculate that I need some info from you guys, namely how many GHZ do you have in your farms? If i can get a couple people to divulge their secret, I'll be able to do a better calculation for the team.

Mine:(6x1.8ghz = 10.8)+.9= 11.7

Sure im not modest............

The only machines that FOLD 24/7 are my PERSONAL home machines......

AMD 2100+ @ 1733mhz Twisted Evil

AMD 1600+ @ 1407 mhz evil

Dual p3 933 (running 2 processes) @ 1866mhz total Laughing

Single p3 933 @ 933mhz Cool

Grand Total - 5 Processes
Grand Total - 5939 mhz

-I have thrown in a couple from the (2) p4 2.0 mhz Laptops......but thedy get too hot.
-I have been testing the 233 @ 266 but it sucks so once it finishes the one its working on.....its history.

Muhahahahahaha.....

The only comps I have are my personal comps:

Athlon XP1600@1541 MHz (x2) = 3082 MHz
Athlon 1.4@1551 MHz
Athlon 1.4@1450 MHz
Athlon XP1800@1731 MHz
Intel PIII 700@1051 MHz

Total = 8865 MHz

I've taken my Celeron 400 laptop offline fer crunchin... Embarassed

How often do the FAH stats server get updated? I'm doing a stats program for SETI I can surely make on for FAH as well. It's just that hourly updates aren't fun unless the stats HTML pages are undated as often.

It seems that they don't get updated as quickly as SETI does. It can take from 2 to 6 hours for stat updates to appear on any of the tracking pages...

The Stanford server updates every 3 hours. I'm not sure how long before an update your units have to arrive by to be included.

Toast, check your PMs please.

I have a pair of identical Duron 800 Win98 machines at home that I run 24/7 every other week, only because the kids don't like it when Dad is using 'their' PCs when they're here. Wink

I also occasionally run a P3 866 NT4 Server at work, which has surprisingly pathetic performance compared to my Durons.

All machines are set at 95% load for FAH because I never got around to changing it. BTW, does anyone know how to get NT to stop logging and bitching about a process using XX% of the CPU?

486 33Mhz...thats it

Be aware that the Pentium4's weak floating-point unit makes it a real dog in most Folding @Home applications, while the Athlon's strong FPU makes it a powerhouse. For the units using the GROMACS core, I read that the -advmethods switch uses SSE for good performance on Pentium3, AthlonXP or Pentium4.

Both of my PCs are crunching away at Folding @Home:
AthlonXP 2100+ (1733 MHz)
AthlonXP 2400+ (2000 MHz)

Okay, we now know what is in your wristwatch....

C'mon, give it up. You post impressive numbers and we want to know what causes it.

Toast,
Ok, I finally got mine all done on paper:

2 Dually 866 PIII's = 4 x 866Mhz
1 Dual 1GZ PIII = 2 x 1Ghz
1 933Mhz PIII
1 1Ghz PIII Laptop (part-time)
1 Dual 750Mhz PIII = 2 x 750Mhz
1 Celeron 500Mhz Laptop
1 PII 350Mhz (part-time)

I just added a couple of those tonight, so it won't reflect in the stats for a couple days.

Two XP 2100+'s @ 1.733 Ghz *not in a dually, just 2 comps.*
1.2ghz athlon *if the bitch dosen't crash*
850mhz athlon *when my dads at work, he don't like me pimping the family computer Sad

*
p4 2.2ghz *when my brother is home from college*

= 7.716ghz or 7.916 ghz if I can get the 1.2 to be stable, and back at its 1.4 ghz overclocked speed

Is there any way we can elect to get the GROMACS core or does it just happen by chance?

Question: I'm using the command line client and didn't set the advanced options when asked to. By default is the option to use "optimized assembly code" enbabled? I saw that option in the graphical client. I don't like using the graphical client, annoys me for some reason. Wrote my own program to hide the CLI client window and put it in a tray icon.

After the SETI Gauntlet is over my folding farm will be:

P4 2.66
P4 3.06
P4 1.60
dual P3 1.13
Athlon 2400+ (1.8 GHz?)
P3 700

~12 GHz
