World Community Grid

im back now, i had to uninstall old one.
i clicked download and then run on the new and as it opened to install it came up saying to do install process the old must hbe removed first, then "is it ok to remove" i said yes and it went and installed the new one.
they are practically identical, my credit didnt carry over tho

will have to see how you get on then dave i guess your task must be small, mine is run time 2 hours 15minutes and only 17% complete. guess i started with a big one. what is your overall performance score right now ??? mine is 117 compared to high-end desktop system

The host is definitely a "blank slate" with no data association to the existing Grid servers. Hence no transfer of details.

Overall performance score is low because it defaulted to 0.98Gb storage.
This will restore back to 5Gb (100) on next update. It's the only one you have input to in your profile. Same as before.
CPU performance is (100) K7-7 1300 against the comparison device which is a P4 1500.

MARK: 6.5% task done at the end of 60 mins processing time.

Process rate is actually a bit behind yours, concurs with the CPU performance estimate, mine at 100 yours at 117.

Found an annoying "feature" though.
I can't Alt-TAB to the client window.
It flicks into the forground and drops straigt back again behind any other window that is open. But if I minimise the other windows, there it is still open on the screen It only stays in front if I click the task-bar icon.
The old client didn't do that.

Going to let it run o-night. C U tmrw.

No old copy of grid to delete.

Overall Perf : 50 :oops:
CPU Perf : 27 :oops:

Seems to be running now.

EDIT, it has reset itself again, re-downloading :cry:

Switch off

dont have a clue ototero, there is a thing on there new site as other people have had errors, when i checked no-one had that problem tho. seeing as it is new out someone will post with that soon and hopefully you can implement the solution.

im now on 25% done, but 3 hours processing. i work that out to be another 9 hours to go.

Could be my crappy penty 2 399mhz

I'll try at home tonight.

[AMDave]

Oli,

that seems to match.
at 20% after 2hrs 40 mins
I work mine out to be a total WU time of 13 hrs 20 mins.
I work yours out to be 11hr 22 mins.

United Devices in specific and Grid in general has ALWAYS under rated AMD systems.
My AMD64 3400+ is only rateing at 100 when compared to a P4 1.5 That is just SO wrong.
Did get one system on and running and on team.

[Empty_5oul]

k fair enough dave, i hadnt worked yours out but hitting whatever % you had in the time seemed a lot - i now relaise it is comparible.

Its good your on team and have a comp there, by tomorrow as we all send our first result back our scores should rocket :thumbleft: hopefully we will be in top 10.

EDIT -- maybe top 100 - i just looked at stats and some teams are producing more than i thought.

i have finished my first grid unit, took 12 hours 5 mins and 5 secs and i claimed 411 points.

my system is now set to 10G capacity (current maximum) and my new device score is 180 :D , also i think the website is updated every 24 hours and it has been 21 since last update so before i go to bed i will know if my score has submitted successfully :thumbleft:

[Beerknurd]

Ok I joined and it is now running on my Gateway 733 MHz. So I should finish my first result by age 50.
