    BBC CCE - What year are you on?

    I'm on 1927 at the moment of writing, doing about 1 year per day.

    Done just over a year (15months) in 4 hours on my AMD 3400+

    Done the same amount in 6 hours on my P4 3ghz.

    How long does it take a timestep for you?

    214 hours for only 12 years seems rather low really...

    Something like 2,5. I read that i needed to defragment my hdd, and since i did that, the project has speeded up a little bit.

    Most people like to watch the graphics/screensaver, but (assuming that you haven't) if you disable that you'll get a noticeable speed increase.

    the graphic thing is always turned off. Since I don't know how to oc, my speed won't go up very fast, or am i wrong? By the way, what cpu-coolers would you guys advise? I have a big Zalman trying to cool my cpu. I've bought a can of compressed air to remove the dust that was between the cooling fins. The processor is only 2 degrees cooler than it was before. Should i change this crappy thing for an arctic freezer 64 pro?

    which zalmen version is it? - if you can post a link to the same one from either their own site or a retailer.

    what is the actual temparature? and what are you using to determine this?
