Howard,

A friendly reminder to send me the test version.

Thanks. :Pokes: ;)

Howard,

My email address is bguinto1@yahoo.com.

Thanks.

Howard,

How do I go about getting a test version from you?

Thanks.

BTW, regarding the second half of my question ... regarding IA-64 optimization. Any time line?

I've been running the DF client for some months now and I'm consistently getting the same "file write" or "faulty-RAM" messages on my Multi-CPU Windows-Intel Servers. It's always the same; over...

IB and PCZ, I agree we should postpone our little gauntlet until the client is slower.

IB and PCZ, as you can proabably tell from the stats, my clients didn't update again. I'm going to go on vacation now, but I'll be back after the weekend. Looking at the scores, it seems like this...

1) It's a P3 with 512K, it should be equivalent, but I'll increase it to 2 2-way 1.2 Ghz P3 Servers. 1 Server for each of you.

2) 3) 4) We'll agree on client stability 7 days after release of...

IronBits, I accept your revised wager with the following modifications/clarifications:

If I win, you and PCZ must each "donate" a XP1600 system for crunching DF under the Ars-technica Banner for 1...

I don't have anything in mind at this time. I'm sure both our teams can come up with something "creative". :scared: :D

Yes the post was meant in jest. Of course I wasn't intentionally trying offend anyone, especially not a fine, upstanding group as this one. :moon:




You have a good point, we may just...

I see there's a lot of honor in this group! :Pokes: :D ;)

I did note some hesitation on his part as well
"But first I need to see what the averages will look like after the new update.

Currently, WE are doing about 2 million more a week...

Howard,

99% of my servers did not update. I estimate I have over 2000 unsent sets that are just buffered. It appears that when the old client tries to upload the old protein it get the following...

Howard,

If you're willing to provide the code, I can attempt to improve your optimization on Intel/Windows platforms, with special emphasis on Itanium2.

Thanks.

1) Check the link above. It's one of the servers I cited.
2) Windows can support up to 64 CPUs, it's not available thru the normal retail channels. It's called the Data Center edition.

Too bad for me I guess. BTW, if you are using applications that can take advantage of the higher memory addresses, Itaniums are a good solution. In fact, from a price/performance standpoint they...

The Server at the moment is capable of running with 64 1.5 Ghz 64-bit CPUs and up to 1 terabyte of Memory. The server is obviously overkill for DF, but I'd like to see what 1 server is capable of in...

Anyone working on optimizing the client to make use of Windows 2003, 64-bit using Intel CPUs? I've beta tested it on a 64-bit Server but performance is lacking.

I'd like to run this on a 64-way...

Thanks all. But I can't help wonder if lemonsqzz and 2001Guy are not holding back a little to make the standings a little more interesting ....

What happens to the updates made between the time the project server was back online and 2:00 AM est? Did we lose "credit" for those uploads?

Howard, does the client do any re-tries when trying to find an update on your servers? It seems that my clients do not "wait" long enough to see if there really is an update. My clients did not...

Has anyone had a client successfully autoupdate to this new protein? The last protein autoupdated fine but this far none of my 20+ servers have switched over.

Thanks all. Can't wait for Howard to reset the stats so that we can all try to make it somewhat interesting for lemonsqzz.

When are you targeting this new algorithm? Will it be after this current protein is finished? Also, are you intending for the current client to automatically update to this new algorithm or will we...
