    The cool thing about this, is that the project was started by and is centered on increasing local (Zaragoza, Spain) user participation/awareness in DC.
    Logic is the art of being wrong with confidence.

    Each work unit is anywhere from 46 seconds to 11 minutes long, but there is a lot of data produced in that short time, each work unit is nearly 500k minimum to be sent back to the server, some are nearing 2 meg files. Thats a lot of data in a short amount of time!

    The disk usage is nearly 22 meg off your hard disk, far above the majority of projects I crunch. For those looking to put this on a stick, I don't know if you can do that?

    It is Linux Friendly!

    Actually my first work unit ended with a computational error also, just hit the update and it was back loading a few more to crunch. been steady, but some of those finished are monster files.

    I have had 6 consecutive WU's fail, and each time it has crashed my BOINC Manager. I have stopped running this project for the time being. Back to Tanpaku full time!

    You never know till you try.

    Post Script: It seems to not like some machines, whether it is all AMD's or Intel's I can't tell, What I Have seen is that if you are running anything else other then Zivis, the project will demand a lot of CPU power to operate. So no added eOn or Dimes in the background is suggested on this one!





    Challenge me, or correct me, but don't ask me to die quietly.
