I focus most of my power on World comm grid ,fight aids portion just because I think I feel the need to cure that bad boy.

Trouble is I don't like long running tasks. Even the BOINC QMC tasks are boring me to tears and they are about a day or so to run. BBC and Climate Prediction take too long. They need to learn how to break up the boredom like they do with the SOB project. Crunching for Sierpinski numbers is very slow, especially on Athlon XPs, but at least the Seventeen or Bust application allows you to report intermediate steps in the process. This gives the illusion that you are achieving some progress. In reality the job still takes 7+ days on a fast P4 and around 2 weeks on an XP3200+.

Cannot say how long an A64 3500 takes as Doomeva has sunk it into The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion.

/EDIT: Steve that KWSN page is interesting. The way I interpret that means that my contribution to AMD Users team stats is 107th rank in the team? Wow I thought I had a few GHz running on BOINC. WHat the hell do the other 106 of you have? 8 way Opterons running 24/7?

vaughan you are there twice

http://stats.kwsn.net/team.php?proj=...direction=DESC

at position 51 and 60. If you can merge these you would jump up the rankings!

And now I'm not showing as 107th. Gotta be Boinc'ed to have stats as random as that hey?

8-way Opterons running 24/7 .... Only in my dreams.

I added a new thread on the bbc climate change message board. http://bbc.cpdn.org/forum_thread.php...fcaacc2d3cc263
I hope it will encourage people to join our team, so we can take a chance to get into the top 3 teams. We're already at 4, but number 1 would suit us better, don't you think? :D

[Empty_5oul]

this is quite interesting. if any of you run VM have you tried this?

It was a temporary thing.
It is yet to be born the virtual machine that will outperform its physical host... :P

Yea, I'm number 100 on the Boinic combination stats. I like this group and bring this up in conversation alot. The PC I use to do these projects is my one and only that I leave on with the Projects running when I'm sleeping or at work, and have made some progress with that. I plan on building one just for projects within the next month or two.
