I set the CPU time(busy) to

I set the CPU time(busy) to 90%.
In the moment 5 WU's are running. Amarok is playing a cool radio stream.
I can accept a runtime a runtime of the BRPS tasks about close to 23 minutes.
The (SSE2) needed 13,220.82 / 12,969.52. That is acceptably.
But when the host is idle, crunching on HT, the mean results come back!
That is of no worth!
When the host is idle it should crunch on max. performance.

The only solution coming on my mind, is to add T4T tasks again (cause of low CPU activity, 1 CPU).
But thats not I want to do - only my root server is allowed to crunch for T4T.

[Bernd]I checked the CPU frequency when I came home yesterday: 4.2GHz!

[edit]These are the threads on my host:

Now experimenting with 6 SSE2

Now experimenting with 6 SSE2 tasks and one CUDA task.

my experience is that the

my experience is that the Linux 64bit (Ubuntu 10.04) is quite slow on Athlon 64
8hr run only indicate 8% complete on 1.13 http://einsteinathome.org/task/288825696

http://einsteinathome.org/host/1315264
Processor should be SSE2 capable

these usually get done in 14-16 hrs on a similar but slower processor on Win7 32-bit. Is this code not running SSE2 on the older Athlons, I know in the past some of the Intel libraries did not provide Athlon support even though SSE2 capable

I see no result on your box!

I see no result on your box! niente/0

I got a 6-core Phenom II(2.7GHz) with 95 Watt and it takes 7-8 h. The 64-Bit App took only 6:30 h.
I could cry! What a waste! I think about switching to XP.

Cancelled that WU only 38%

Cancelled that WU only 38% complete after 17hrs. Both wingmen returned results
so that was a wasted effort.

Have a new WU 1.17 SSE2 will advise on the progress of that one http://einsteinathome.org/task/293413265

edit: this 1.17 WU seems more promising 14% crunched in 1.5 hrs (forced CPU to full 2.4GHz to test).
