Great job Akos Fekete ! I

Great job Akos Fekete !

I just wanted to thank you for the optimizations to the client program. I think such good low level programmer, who know about inside assembly are very rare. I would not be surprised when some great banks or software companys would offer you a job somewere in the world.

Greetings

Let's give thanks to Akos Fekete ... who has stoked the fire of progress in Einstein@home.

stoked it? he's poured a load of petrol on it more like!

some exelent work, all my older computers are now crunching einstein too (they took too long with the standard app) and i've also increased my resource share for einstein as well :)

bring on S5! :D
it seems we're speeding through the S4 data ;)

again, many thanks, it's great to see speeds of 8 GFLOPS in BoincView :)

I just got his app on one of

I just got his app on one of my machines (finally) and it dropped the crunch time down from about 5 hours to 1 hour.

I posted in the crunchers forum (optimized apps) some questions for other machines so I can get them humming along like my first machine is.

Truly amazing.

Ok...one question. When they come out with this S5 data will we have to uninstall ur optimized apps or reinstall new ones? Etc....what do we do then?
---Thank you.

The way Akos' apps are, S5 will automatically download and start running, without any issues. S5 is already going to be generically optimized, have not heard if someone is going to do specific optimizations or not.

OK, in light of recent

OK, in light of recent happenings I'm going to revive this thread.

Thank you Akos, I hope your S5 efforts are eventually appreciated by the scientific community, and that they can be integrated into the stock client in the near future, I understand the reasons why we had to stop, as soon as an EinsteinBeta@home project starts I'm signing up.

I think I can say that every cruncher who's ever used your optimisiations both appreciates AND recognises your ability and enthusiasm for this project and it's sucess.

Keep going, and don't get downhearted.
