We there you have it. Nice

We there you have it. Nice googling ;-)

That is a significant improvement, looks like Akos is at it again!

There are 10^11 stars in the galaxy. That used to be a huge number. But it's only a hundred billion. It's less than the national deficit! We used to call them astronomical numbers. Now we should call them economical numbers. - Richard Feynman

Yeah, but now we can start guessing just how much of a slash in credits there will be this time...

Sheesh, don't get me started on that again! :-)

Any way, it looks like the cat's out of the bag now. Proving again it's hard to escape the scrutiny of us die hard NC'ers. ;-)

It doesn't matter if you start or not. It's the preordained way of things. The "benchmark" scoring system is deemed to be "the standard". EAH obviously has enough money to pay someone to speed their application up. SAH has the user community that can speed it up because of it being open source. The other projects have either built optimization in (doubtful) or are not concerned about it. Personally, if the folding projects don't do optimization, I kinda have a smidge of an issue with that, because are they saying that they'd rather not find potential cures for diseases as fast as they can? If CPDN isn't using optimization, with all the clamoring about how WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, then are they really in that big of a hurry, or is it really economically and politically aimed at punishing us in the United States (CPDN is a British project, and the most vocal crowd over on S@H Cafe in that topic are the Brits) when most likely our scientists and engineers will either come up with or significantly contribute to whatever it is that helps lower CO2 emissions, not to mention our greater committment to the ISS, having to bail sections of the world out from tyranny, etc, etc, etc...

...and you were worried about YOU getting started? ;-)

Yes, English the sometimes translate good so not when Google. ;-)

BTW, is this host of yours overclocked? If so, to what? Also is it a socket 939 4400+ or is it AM2? I'm trying to compare my Athlon 64 3700+ (San Diego) to something running on Linux, and the 4400+ (assuming socket 939) is just two of my cpus stuck on a single die...

OK, some more info I gathered

OK, some more info I gathered when Akos's hosts were unhidden.

One host is an AMD X2 3600+ (65nm) Brisbane oc'ed to ???.

He started with 153 ksec for 516.87 credits.
Then 34 ksec for 516.97 c.!

And one page back in stats at that time: 28,387.48 sec / 516.79 credits.

c/h rose from ~12 to ~65!

The posting was made at May 20th, quite some time ago and still no official optimized app.

Micha

Yes it's oc'ed to 2.63Ghz(socket 939). The Windows app is patched and the same host running Linux is performing even better. But it is pulled out of the project untill some things are changing over here.

Btw. I've to use http://dict.leo.org/?lang=en pretty often to find the right English words, or to correct my spelling. ;-)

Mmmm... what does all that mean? I'm not really concerned about the Windows app right now, but I'm now somewhat concerned that you're using VMWare. What I'm wanting to see is real live AMD hardware that is similar to either socket 939 variants of the 3700+, FX-57, FX-55, 4400+, Opteron 175, or Opteron 165 (in order of preference) running between 2700 and 2800MHz and using a real Linux OS, not a VM. Does that machine fit that description? ;-) The 2.63 is close enough for me... :-)

Thanks...

[edit]
My stats say, it got about 22.3 c/h equals to 8.84 [c/(h · clock)]
The einstein app scales linear to clock frequency, so you can easily compare. ;-)
