BOINC Race

[vaughan]

We need to decide which projects and in what order we'll run our next BOINC race.

Suggestions so far include these:

NanoHive@home

Proteins@home

PrimeGrid

Rectilinear Crossing Number

Sztaki

Tanpaku

Are there any other suggested projects?

[NeoGen]

Cool! A Boinc Championship 2007?

Suggestion: (Boinc) Riesel Sieve ?

[Beerknurd]

Neuron????

[Strongbow]

I'm for all of the above (or below depending on your forum settings)!

[Lagu]

Should it be possible round of and end with D20L as number 11? Only asking and dreaming

[Jason1478963]

I think we should run WCG for the next 30 years to see if we can get the #1 spot

[BlackAdder]

I like WCG and Rosetta......

[Big Whiskey]

I don't go near Sztaki after I got burned for 330+ hrs of crunching for no credit

everthing else is ok

Good point made there Big Whiskey. I wasted some hours on Sztaki too but not 330+

OK, so far we have this list:
NanoHive@home
Proteins@home
PrimeGrid
Rectilinear Crossing Number
Tanpaku
Riesel Sieve
Neuron@home
WCG
Rosetta
and to finish up the non-BOINC D2OL

That's 10 projects at 1 week each. We'll be busy but it'll be worth it.

Any other projects to add or is 10 enough?
What order?

EDIT:
For those running 64 bit Linux there are at least 2 projects - Riesel Sieve and ABC@Home that have native 64 bit applications for Linux. They appear to get much better daily output compared to the Windows 32 bit versions.

Perhaps we should add ABC@Home to the list and maybe Dnet or Grid to round out the contest to 12 weeks?

Regarding race choice...

NanoHive will probaby take too long with the pending credits
Protein gives you fixed points regardless (not sure if that is good or bad)
