Done Spinhenging for now, back to POEM to complete 250K there. :hiya:
sweet!
Yeah I'm doing those 2 spinhenge seems to run sweet on ancient hardware :P
Yes, as a matter of fact, it does! Makes me think I might borg a buddy's older machine to run it. He's said he wouldn't mind doing DC, but doesn't have the necessary "ooomph" to do it himself. Hmmmm. :umm:
Oh well, 200 WU's still to clear. Shouldn't take more than a day or two.
OK, made my 250K on Poem, will be switching over to Goldbach's over the next coupla days. :D
Will give BigRed and Andy Brady a bit of a boost there & see if we can get the team score up a ways.
Be warned, the WUs are miniscule and run in about 2 minutes on a Q6600. If you try to run a large cache then you will get so many that the whole machine bogs down but you need enough for a couple of days. The project frequently has problems but they seem to be short. They are still just running the test applications and no science is being done yet.Quote:

Actually, I'll put that box back on Poem. The Goldbach thingie locked up on me today. I suspected something like that from a Beta project, which is why is wasn't on a production machine. I'll try again when the project gets a bit more experience. :p
Probably the same problem I had. Just way too many (thousands) of those itty bitty WUs. As a result I've cut way back on it too.:jester:
I think you're right, Bigred. The server appears to have got a bit jammed up, likely from all the bazillions of itty-bitty WU's, and we bit the big one. Oh, well. And I had even gone to the trouble of telling it to only phone home every couple of hours. I guess that made it even worse! At 00:02:02 per WU, the little buggers pile up quick!
Oh well, onward and upward, or something. :p
