Amazingly mitro is 2nd ranked and not too far from 1st! Even without the duallies he borrowed. He must have something more he's not telling us. :P

[dAVE]

Ye gods. Mitros still got three opterons even after he has loaned two out. Is Mrs Mitro giving birth to them!

Blackheath, Looking at my results I have not yet found a WU also crunched by anything but an AMD machine. Do they have different WUs for intel or is it that the different processors crunch differently and they can't validate each others results? dAVE

Thats just a 2-day dump of WU's. And I only have 2 dual cores in this race. :P

Tomorrow my production will be a fraction of today.

Woot. I'm 3rd. I'll have a hard time getting past that with my 1700+ 1.4GHz.

I'm close to losing my 3rd place to this Jeff Morton.

I'm worried about Vaughan! ...He's in stealth mode and so will probably drop an almighty load anytime soon!

He surely won't let a "Pommy Basxxxd" beat him again! ;)

[vaughan]

Ah there's the rub. :D

I've still got quite a cache of Sztaki work to crunch yet ... but I'm getting there :!:

An observation: Predictor runs slowly on a P4 compared to an Athlon XP.
Almost 2 hours per task on a P4 Prescott 3.2 compared to about 58 minutes on an Athlon XP2800+ both Win XP Pro SP2 and 1 GB DDR400 RAM. Sztaki and Leiden Classical were / are much closer in times per CPU.

If it wasn't for this BOINC Championship I'd switch the P4s back to something they like eg. SOB.

Is Predictor more memory intensive then?

[Evil-Dragon]

I haven't really noticed, however my workunits:

46 min - AMD X2 4200+
50 min - AMD 64 3200+

Dunno what the shitty Intel machine at work takes but i bet it's over 60 mins.

No... it just depends on the architecture of the processor... A64's, XP's, Pentium-M's are good and P4's, not so good. Macs are alien to me :P

We're ranked 25th now, with the next team not too far away.
