How to get rolling on PSP Sieve

[carlos]

So I'm not the only one.

Ototero,

Try using the client that can be found in this thread. It's slower but it's stable and gives more factors. Proth has a few bugs. Can't tell you much about it. To run the client in idle mode you have to create a batch file with the following content:

start /low jjsieveSSE2.exe -d -w

NeoGen,

I don't understand how that happens. and mine has been running flawlessly for days and nights in a row.

Just wait....for the vampire bug....

cheers Carlos.

cheers Carlos.

Thanks.

Are you using emule?

Carlos

[Ototero]

yes, but not at this minute

Is there any entry in the event viewer that gives a hint?
I find these crashes very strange as for example my longest runing proth_sieve client runs now for 63 days without stopping.

Yes Lars, here is a cut-and-paste.

Faulting application proth_sieve_sse2.exe, version 0.0.0.0, faulting module , version 0.0.0.0, fault address 0x00000000.



I have XP Pro SP2 running on AMD 64 3000+

Seems very little to go on.

This looks more like a programm error then a hardware problem to me.
"fault address 0x00000000" is typical for a invalid pointer operation which can happen if a local variable is not correctly initialised.

Have you tried the cmov variant of the application also or is it slower on the AMD 64?

So far this is the only version I've, Carlos, who posted earlier here, suggested another version.

jjsieve is a new approach and is still in beta. I use it for stability testing at the moment but it is still slower then proth_sieve.
(Only marginal when used with a combined range but at least 10-15% slower on the second pass ranges)
jjsieve scales better the more "k" are in the test file.


If you want i can send you the proth_sieve_cmov executable by mail or you can find all available version here:

Thanks Lars,

I'll consider other versions after this one crashes again. It's running nicely at around 400kp/s.
