Since SIMAP shut down I switched to FiND@home but after a huge batch of WU’s that seems to have dried up for the moment… I then came across another medical project that I thought my deserve some contribution so did a bit of digging to find out some more info… and it turns out there is are optimised apps that give a decent speed up in crunch times… so I’ve been running it this week and I’m impressed… Looks like my crunchers are capable of 100K per day on this CPU-based project… even my little Athlon 5350 is pumping out 10K per day!!!
Once I managed to find the correct app to run on my AMD CPU’s it’s been flying… only problem being it wouldn’t run on 32-bit Windows so my 2 32 bit crunchers were reloaded with x64 instead of x86…
And after 4 days of running team position has leapt from #186 up to #79 already
Denis@home have started a Beta test, so there is some new Wu’s out, sadly there is no optimised app yet for the Beta test, but I’ve switched 3 of my crunchers back over to Denis to see how things go.
