300,000 Points and Climbing in TanPaku

[Nflight]

Congratulations everyone especially our newest member Zeppelin :!:

Job Well Done there Zeppelin :notworthy: :hello1: :notworthy:

Keep up the good work, we have returned to 3rd place and look to make a tremendous dent in our points as reach for second place.

I just put an X2 running XP-64 on the project so that will give a few points for the team. Running it in the cmd window..... having a hard time leaving the command line. Those years of unix/linux.

Thanks for the help Bruce, a few more machines and we just might run down a few people. Not that there are all that many in front of us.I'm going to leave this mess I have on there for a couple of weeks just to see where it goes.

[Brucifer]

I also put a linux X2 on it and aamd64/3700 on linux. Will see how the linux runs in comparison. Doesn't seem to be many points per wu though. Does this project all in line with the standard boinc credit granting amount?

Bruce,

I find it's a total first come first serve. If you are the first to run a unit with SSE2 you are the one awarded the high points. I have my pref set to contact server every .0001 and run almost all untouched wu's, it finishes 99.75% and starts a download of the next wu. There are some people that are scoreing higher but their running ramped up clients also. Major diff if not optimized.

Alas...... ars_technica is running past us. Linux just isn't the o/s of choice for boinc, no doubt about that. I had knocked off a couple of systems that I was doing linux testing on docking@home. I'm going to put them back on that. My other linux systems I'll put back on stuff where their output gets better results. Was interesting to see though.

If Ars Technica increases at any bit I may just have to return with a dual core to help out my fellow team mates on Tanpaku. :shock:

[Brucifer]

gonna take a bit more than a dual core as they are pressing pretty hard -- they really want the points for DC_Vault.

Too bad, they can not have them. :D

You got that right Zep I'm busy building 2 more systems.
