I couldn't find a thread for this project so I just wanted to state my intentions of running it and trying to move Free-DC up a couple of places or 40.

Free-DC is currently in 123rd position and I see a lot of room to move up the ranks without much work. I'm hoping to get us into the Top 100.:guntotin::guntotin::clap::clap:

Well, Bigred, your quest for a meelyun seems to have gotten sidetracked. :blush:

We *were* at #52 when I started Docking a few weeks ago. Andy Brady was chugging along all by himself. A week or so after I jumped in, Andy found something else to do. So, all by myself, with my 2 duals and 1 Borged quad, I've moved us back up to #51 and will kick HardOCP out of 50th place in a couple of days.

Just BTW, when this project started, the points-for-work ratio was not-so-hot. Seems that sometime over the long summer, someone got the hint and made adjustments. Looks to be more in line with the other folding projects, point-wise.

If anyone would like to throw in a box or two, I'd love to have the company! :hiya:

One reason I got back on this project was to provide Andy Brady with a bit of help, then he got distracted & went somewhere else. That's the way it goes in Free-DC - everyone is FREE to work on whatever they want.

"one small tower"? :rotfl: Riiiiiiiiiiight! Hey, it's a boost we need. Happy Crunchin'.

Get ready to start jumping seats

Dunno about jumping seats (sounds kind of painful), but we just put the :stomp: on Xtrem Team Boinc Addicted.

Free-DC now in 47th place and about to put the stomp on Team Sci-Fi, Guru Mountain and Nordlichter, to be followed in a couple of days by TitanesDC, Coast to Coast AM BOINCers and Sicituradastra, in that order. Ought to leave us around 40th place overall.

I LIKE IT! :banana:

Having Lauren get fired up on a project is like strapping an afterburner to your butt! :firedevil:

outlnder, they've been having a mini outage every few days. Nothing long or consistent, just enough to be irritating. Cure is to have a day's backlog of WU's.

Lauren, you're absolutely right. I had forgotten the lesson of that first "flight" you posted. Looks like the second guy has his stuff together a LOT better! I get a bad case of pucker thinking about that first one. :stretcher

Saturday morning, we're in 41st place and Docking is having server problems. Lauren, I think we (meaning you) sucked them dry! :hair:

Sure hope they can get their act together. :bonk:

This is from the Docking site:
"We are recovering from the earlier problem, but we need to keep generation of new work low during this weekend. So, you may experience work starvation for a while. Thank you for your patience!!"

You sucked 'em inside-out! :jester: :rotfl: :clap:

Well, they're definitely holding down the number of WU's for release. Had my buffers set for 3 days and it looks like I'm getting about a day and a half's worth right now. At least the work seems to be steady, although I notice the newest WU's are also taking longer. Ah, well, we plugs on along. :walking:

LAURENU2
11-16-2010, 11:38 PM
:idea:I set my buffer for 1.25 days :rock:

It Looks like Free-DC will jump a seat a Day

As of right NOW 09:54EDT on Wednesday, 11-17-10, Docking has us as #37 and about to :stomp: three teams in the next three days, with more to come after that. So, yepper, it's lookin' good.

We be rockin' :music: Although I've never tried playing a guitar left-handed, like the guy in the smilie. :jester:

Wow! :scared: That's a LOT of bad supplies. I wonder why PS's go bad so often. That's undoubtedly the main thing that goes wrong with PCs - at least with MY PCs. I just figure on replacing them every couple of years. Dunno - guess that comes from running the machines all the time, crunching Work Units.

Fortunately, they are cheaper than CPUs or motherboards.

After I get the last 5 replaced I will run good until June=July:thumbs:
That was 19 PS :cry:

Paratima
11-18-2010, 07:31 PM
19 Power Supplies! Yikes! Crunching in the summer is tough. I try to watch for PS's on sale. Always got at least a couple new-in-the-box around the place.

outlnder: Thanks for the boost on yer way through, buddy. We're now in 36th place. :clap: Polish National Team bites the big one tomorrow.

Gettin' better all the time, as the song sez.

Sorry to hear about your troubles, gopher. It seems like most of these projects are created with great fanfare by the university's top researchers, who disappear once the thing starts running. An inadequate staff of underpaid, undertrained and undersupported undergrads is left to (under)manage the show. Professional sysadmins wouldn't put up with a fraction of the crap that goes on. But then again, a professional sysadmin wouldn't work very long with shoestring funding and dicey equipment. It's really a shame, but it seems to happen in a lot of DC projects. The Docking admins have been apologizing a lot, lately. That shouldn't be necessary. It could be worse, I guess. At least they seem to care about the users.

And oh yeah, Free-DC just passed the 5,000,000 mark in Docking.

Lauren, with your Thundering Herd galloping along, keeping count is definitely tougher.
The ride sure isn't boring when you're afterburnered. :firedevil:

gopher, that's good news! :thumbs:

Now if we could figure out what happened to the Bokmeister... :Pokes:

Guess we'll just have to keep watching for him to appear. http://lesgphoto.com/images/telescope.gif

Haven't stopped crunching! There's a problem affecting all machines running Win 7. The admins have no idea, other than to flush out the offending WU's. It's on a remote machine for me, so it'll take me a day or so to get over there and do the flush.

Using crunchers for beta testers... :mad:

Paratima
02-03-2011, 09:55 PM
This project is beset by 0-length .inp files. They cause the program to crunch approximately *forever* with 0.00 progress. Not nice.

No fix in sight, as the admins haven't even acknowledged the problem. If you need me, I'll be crunching over at POEM. Almost at the million mark there, too.
