Is this true are the Cows on a stampede?

[Fozzie]

Saw some big production spikes from the DPC mob.

Word is they are gonna hit DF hard.

Bring it on Cow dudes

[Hagar]

No this is just MrMr flushing some old results he had laying around.

* Hagar knows nothing about a Stampede

[Grumpy]

Time to revive some old Folders and their Boxen I can smell beef coming our way, and fast.

[lemonsqzz]

Well .. I just realized I have been slacking .. I just unboxed my new stack here..
should prove interesting .. we'll let the numbers speak for themselves





Crunchy New Year !!!!

[[DPC]Mobster]

Euh.... what....? Stampede.....?
/me looks at his calendar...

Nope.

[PCZ]

lemonsqzz

What are you running there :shocked:

[Thor]

He propably got his new opteron cluster or something like that
I think it will be a machine(s)

Bow down to the power (no I don't mean A99 )

/ me wants more boxen...

STAMPEDE

Ramped from 120 Active users to over 200 in a day

[lemonsqzz]

No opterons .... yet... This is what I think I fired up:

Machine Count: 32
Total MHz: 189748
Total Processes: 128

Each system is more or less: (Hyper-threaded of course)
MEM:2064664
Linux - Running Kernel Version 2.4.18-24.7.xbigmem
4x Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.06GHz @ 3056mhz (512 KB cache)
6:17pm up 1 day, 4:17, 1 user, load average: 3.98, 3.93, 3.85


Probably cant run for very long though since I need then for my real work.. Just
thought it would be fun for a few days... I have about 128 systems available, but
we need to bring in extra fans if I fire many more up Opterons are on the way too!!


.. I think if you aren't producing for a protein you should not be listed.. just another
of my whiney thoughts..


bad da boom.!

[[DPC]Mobster]

Nice to have you back lemonsqzz.

After 1 day the Genome Collection has become the 1st victim of mad Cow Disease

Huh? we only had a frontpage post can we help it that it works :P

[HansArne]

Enjoy it while you can. We will be back!

I think We should start Clearing those stables and get rid of the disease

Like a good Terminator already has said: We'll be Back

[HansArne]

They needed 292 active members to beat our 10.

[Fozzie]

I beleive they were catching you anyway.

I think they need the 300 odd members to go for OCWorkbench.

I beleive the month long stampede doesn't even start until the 14th, probably a lot of the Cow Dudes are crunching offline for their well known simultaneous dumps.

We shall see how things go depending on the next protein, a fast one could see them really move.

Bring it on Cow Dudes. You're still slacking 12 mill down on the day to Free DC.

[Grumpy]

We are endeavouring to call up the Reserves

Already got the pots of boiling oil atop the walls, got an earthmoving contractor coming over to construct a moat as well...Steve Irwin in delivering a few friends to occupy the moat

Personally I do not think we are going to catch FREE DC.
We just wan't to make up some place's....

But then again... we are mad crazy cows...so maybe w'll suprise you

[Grumpy]

We have rigged the Castle to self destruct, enter at your own peril

I never did trust a Cow that knew how to type

[Gyske]

Stampede? Nah

[Grumpy]

Been to the coast lately, better check the main Sea Wall for leaks..any rumour of a strange person with a big drill is unfounded...at least you folk know how to stick fingers in holes

Very nice reference, Grumpy.

[FoBoT]

[Grumpy]

Thanks for the picture, I am scarred for life now, years of therapy ruined with 1 post

[Anteraan]

Grumpy, you might need to get 6 more drills for the rest of the dwarves.

FoBoT -- <insert applauding smilie here>

[Grumpy]

Doc is busy running the DF Project.
Sleepy is, well, doing quality assurance work for Beds R Us.
Bashful is still trying that new wonder drug to help his agoraphobia.
Happy, is caught up scouring the Web for interesting News Items to post at OCW.
Dopey is still trying to install a Farm in the corner of his study of our round house.
And Sneezy is in hospital after tring to clean the dust from inside a few Boxen.

So, just old grizzle guts, his drill bit, and a whole lot of hate to get the job done.


Here is something you Bovines With Clogs all will be getting real soon

[Grumpy]

Congratulations to all in Dutch Power Cows for an amazing effort the past few weeks, do not get too comfortable with 3rd position

[[DPC]Mobster]

Thanks Grumpy. We're just enjoying ourselves for the time being.
Hopefully some of the new members will stick around after the stampede so we can offer OCworkbench, Overclockers Australia and ProCooling a bit of a fight

[JustDutch]

It seems the cows have gained another 150 members today...... Will this ever stop?

[omixium]

Dutch Power Cows (994 members, 703 producing)

[Grumpy]

Ars had better start pumping up the heat in Team Stir Fry


Looks like we have a bit of action going on here Folks..maybe we will be due for a new Protein a lot sooner than Howard thought..not too sure if he likes having to work faster

[iggy]

not too sure if he likes having to work faster

With all these members folding, maybe its time for 196 protein

[Grumpy]

I think they will need to hire a research assistant to go through all the extra data.

[FoBoT]

for sure !

a really slow one would be great

we'll hit 10B at the end of this week, too late for a protein change until the following week, so Feb 10 is likely for the switch

[Grumpy]

Great, I will be out getting my new motorised wheelchair for my Birthday, then partying all night. The changeover never happens on a quiet day

Well happy birthday in advance. Is your new wheelchair going to have all-wheel drive and a suped-up engine in it? With the weather around here, I think you would need AWD.

[Galuvian]

But...

Can the wheelchair crunch proteins?

[Grumpy]

Yeah, it will have AI to navigate the rough ground, a Prescott will run it and I can use the air intake on the front grill of the electric motor to cool the cpu, bout the only thing that will I am not sure to ask Howard for a fast or slow Protein for my Birthday, the way I am slipping in the Top 50, a real slow one seems the go

P.S. I am not ready for a ehrrlvhair yet, it just seems that way every time I fall over and the ground breaks my fall
