Good pick up.
I am sure I missed more than one.
I'll fix it up.
Thanks.

[Brucifer]

I edited the thing to show for this month (tmonth or ttoday). They have several though on their site. I put it in there since there used to be 3 members that crunched 1 or more llrnet before. I've got several XP's running it, but they sure don't do as good as the P4/Celerons do.

Also found out that three of my linux systems were seg faulting. Turned out that they all had slack 9.0 for the O/S, and I upgraded that and no more seg faults.

[AMDave]

Thanks. I'll prob use the teamsieve.php for the page.

Must admint I have tried many OS but not slackware.
SlackPawn runs it too.
Perhaps I'll take a look at it next month.
Loaded FC4 the other day. Much more stable than FC3.
Mozilla closed on me last night when I right clicked on a Flash-ad. No curveball exceptions, just closed.
Will be testing that again on the same page etc tonight with bug tracking on.

[Brucifer]

I haven't given FC4 a run yet. I need to pick up another video card before I do that. But FC4 should run llrnet no problems. I just thought I'd give llrnet a run for a while to see if I could get a prime. :) Probably going to have to cut a few systems off before long though as the summer heat is building up here, and with the A/C constantly on in the computer room, so it the electric bill. Just play it by ear is the name of the game I guess. The wife hasn't reached "freak stage" yet, but there are agitations signs showing every now and then. :)

[AMDave]

just pack them in boxes and send them over.
I'll look after them for you :D :lol:
no seriously :shock:

it hits 42 deg cel. in summer here and -2 in winter.
we just love it :roll:
right now it's winter time and the machines are fine.

[Brucifer]

I was lucky enough to spend some time in Perth, WA and really enjoyed it. Reminded me a lot of the scrub deserts out west here. Even enjoyed the Sunday morning "sessions." :)

[Brucifer]

The heat is here, and the A/C unit is running full time with the farm on just jacking up the electrical bill. So have turned off all but four systems until the weather cools down. :( But that's the way it goes...

[AMDave]

night time running ?

[Brucifer]

Still runs continuous at night too unfortunately. And to add to it, the wind blows quite a bit here so the dust factor is really high. So pretty much limits me to around 5 or so systems unless we get a cooler day. Once upon a time I used to run 11 systems on rc5 during the summer, but those were the days of lower powered chips and less heat too... :) But will work up a few more and experiment and see how it goes.

I put 4 more on rc5, so that makes 5 on rc5 and 4 on llrnet for the rieselsieve project. Will see how that fares. :)

[AMDave]

Thta's rough. I was running mine at nightime with no AC, but all windows and door open. But I guess I had a good lower-back to top-front (or viceversa) air-flow through the room.

Gd luck with the testing. That's how I did mine. Don't risk too much though. It's painful thrwing out a denatured CPU.

heh.... yep :D The worst part though is having to buy the replacement one w/motherboard.

Eight systems seems to be about the limit before the a/c goes nuts. So 8 is much better than a couple. Have 2 on llrnet, and 6 on rc5-72.

Riesel Sieve stats now on the dashboard.

But not yet on the individuals.

[NeoGen]

Ototero,

You are unstoppable!! :lol:
You've been adding one or two projects to the dashboard every month for the past few months, and now that I count them we're already on 35 projects! :shock:
I hope your stats making machine there still has some space left for more :P I have a feeling that Orbit@Home, Lattice and SIMAP are gonna start up until the end of the year.

AMD Users is everywhere! :cool:


p.s. - And thanks for adding the projects and for all the work you got on our expense! :) lol

If we search real hard we might find some more and reach 40 projects on the dashboard by the end of the year... :lol:

[Ototero]

But it does spread us VERY thin :cry:

What if I split the active stats into boinc and non-boinc?

The page wouldn't be so wide.

Any thoughts guys?

[NeoGen]

Might be a good idea. It would make it easier to find person x on project y for example, as the page would not be so large.

But are you thinking of two tables (boinc and non-boinc) on the same page, on top of each other, or two different pages each with one table?

[daddygeek]

sounds good to me :)

[Ototero]

I was thinking 2 tables on the same page.

[NeoGen]

The active stats page would be ok with two tables, but if you do that to the personal stats table too, with all the inactive members that are there, it will become a gigantic page.

One suggestion only... put on top of the page a link to jump directly to the second table (the one below), so that we don't have to scroll all the way down manually to see the lower table. :)

Hello,

Just thought I'd drop a note to let all of you know (especially Ototero) that if you need any type of data export (we have CSV's set up for Free-DC to pull stats data from already, other things can be worked out), I'd be happy to help. As the creator of the stats pages over at RS, I have access to everything and know how to pull stuff out.

Thanks for the interest in our project - let Lee or I know if there's anything we can help with!

Excellent bryanRS

Let's hope some of our computers can help your project meet its goals.

[NeoGen]

Speaking of Riesel Sieve stats, I noticed that on Free-DC's stats page for Riesel Sieve LLR we got around 500,000 points more than we really do.
We got about 2.5 million and they score us with 3 million... lol

[Ototero]

Thanks Bryan,

I currently get the stats for all projects and people using 2 excel spreadsheets.

That data is loaded into my database for crunching.

I'd be interested in trying to load your CSVs for AMD Users people in LLR and Scores.

I can't seem to find the individual scores for our users in Team Sieve Stats. There is no hyperlink.

Thanks for popping in here.

Stuart.

[bryanRS]

Ototero,

There currently isn't a breakdown of Sieve scores for each team similar to the LLR pages yet, as we're working through some bugs & rewriting the stats pages (only on the technical side, not in terms of layout). The expanded sieve statistics are being worked in as part of that update, though.

I've PM'ed the links to the CSV files, and you're free to use them as you see fit.

I try to lurk around each team's boards once in a while, to see if there's anything Lee or I can help out with.

Bryan

[NeoGen]

Ototero added Riesel Sieve LLR on the personal stats now. Thanks Bryan! :)

Ototero, just one glitch... you wrote there "Reisel". :P

[Ototero]

Trust you Neo :lol:

[Brucifer]

Back doing some rieselsieve sieving. Went at that really hard core in the past. But got bored with the distributed.net server issues, so moved back over to riesel. :)

Question for 72CJ5: do you use Rieselator?

[Brucifer]

Question for 72CJ5: do you use Rieselator?

No I don't. I'm just grinding only on linux. As for the llrnet, I have two intel boxes crunching on 1 amd. I intend on moving the amd over to sieving.

As for the sieving, I am exclusively amd and linux. :) adn yes, it takes a bit of baby sitting, but it's a kick and I enjoy helping Lee on his project.

[Brucifer]

A bit of a plug here for the rieselsieve project. If you are on dialup, and if you have AMD (which you are supposed to for this tem -- heh heh) then I would very strongly recommend the SIEVING portion of the riselsieve project to you. If you have computers scattered around that are not hooked up to a network, but do have floppy drives, then I would recommend sieving to you. If you have an ISP that is really stingy with your bandwidth allowance, again, rieselsieve sieving is for you!!!

Currently the AMD_Users team is in a very good position at Rieselsive, both for the llrnet and for the sieving portions. Recently Free-DC had a huge cruncher (must be one of the guys lucky enough to have a ton of corporate computers) join on the LLRNET portion of the rieselsieve project. So Free-DC will end up totally dominating the LLRNET.

However, the sieving portion is not that way. :) I am currently #3 in the sieving portion. Team AMD_Users is up there. Out main challengers are all those "higher math weenies" that know all that stuff us regular people can't understand. They have their Chaos team. Well gents, with a little more help from some amd computers, we could climb right up on top. If you are the least bit interested in sieving, I would be more than willing to walk you through this. As for a project that will be around a while, this one will be for years yet. There is a lot of work to do. And while mathematics doesn't have the spotlight to the same degree some of the boinc folding efforts do, we wouldn't be very far in anything on this planet without the advancing knowlege in mathematics. So it IS a worthwhile project.

And again, I'm only begging for your non-mainstream AMD computers that can't keep up with other stuff in the latest boinc things. If you have XP1700's or 1800's.

And of course, if you have some nice fast amd's, and want to jump right into sieving, please do! :)

And if you are a busy soul that has some P4's just dying to do something, the LLRNET program is totally automatice and needs *NO* babysitting. Just start it and run..... and watch those points mount up.
