Welcome to Phased_Array who joined us today.
All I can say is WOW !! Talk about a lot of Stomps and Milestones!
A great day of production as we had our 4th best daily output of all time.
Rac continues to head north as we close in on the #1 spot.
We also gained another 45,000 credits on Planet3D Now!
Great work everyone, thanks for your contributions!
Keep Crunching! :tiphat:

hmm, I’m going to take a drive to the office today to boost output, I had to do a new OS install on one of the test machines (quad core:chuckle: ) and I ran out of time to finish the install and place Docking on it.

8th overall rocks :headbang:

DT.

Rock and Roll!
Awesome crunching!
Thanks for the stats… you getting pretty darn good at this.

Thanks for the update SJ! :slight_smile:

BIG BUMMER as D@H is not generating WU’s as of 14:26 UK time. Have 3 wu’s with under an hour to crunch then I’m completely out of work… :furious: am back to 50/50 on another project FTTB :frowning:

6

Someone really needs to post a warning to the newly arrived to docking to keep a 1-2 day queue at least for the weekend. I learned that the last time.

That being said, the quad is running its last unit (didn’t want to freak my daughter out if she took a look with all the WUs so left the quad on a 50/50 with WCG and normal .3 queue). I have enough on the duallies to run till tonight then they will be out as didn’t do a full 2 days like I should have. Think for next weekend I will do the full 2 days for all the rigs just to give the surge everything I can (not all that much, but I got 3 stomps in sight I want :D)

7

You can say that again. Have one computer that I can’t get to stock pile work, it will be out this afternoon. Other two should be good for two day’s.
Just as TPR is gaining momentum with the Surge we get set back again!:frowning:

8

Good to know about the outage frequency. Luckily my queue was already at 2 days.

/nostalgia on
Reminds me of the good ol’ days when we all ran SetiQ and had our own cache to pull from, or distribute if needed. That was the way to do it.
/nostalgia off

Every cloud has a silver lining, so they say? Just who they are I don’t know, but if we ain’t getting any neither are the competition… I hope? :xfinger:

10

Guys and gals; I’m good for the weekend, I always cache a minimum of 3 days; usually 6 days; and when involved with something like this surge or a camping trip 10 days …so yes I stole all the WU’s!!!

There’s approx. 120 WU’s on Que on just this one machine; 4 of at least 20 cores (1 of at least 9 machines) active at any given time

11

Plenty of WUs here, let’s rock :slight_smile:

12

I’ve tried a few times in the past to up the cache load but for some reason or another it - D@H - refuses to let it happen. Tried again on friday to get it to acknowledge 5 days but was told to p!$$ orf. :slight_smile: or should that be :frowning: ?

13

Cache limits are directly connected to what your machine can do…if your machine can do 5 Wu’s / day and you request 6 days …you’ll cache 30 Wu’s …BUT…if you have terminated some in the recent past , the server will think that you are a wasted resource…also if you run several projects at once , you can possibly DL more WU’s than can be completed …a history of this will tell the server you are high risk and limit your cache

14

And it may have been at the time you requested that there were no WUs available. Took me 1/2 day to cache up a day and a half’s worth as I hit it in between stocking time

15

I have 4 rigs, not one below 2.4Ghz with 3/4 Gb ram. Tried D@H since coming over to TPR to get a decent cache, but no joy? As for the Apple, even though they show an Apple/Intel system they don’t appear to honour it? Has to be either finger trouble or an age thing or both, on my part? :slight_smile:
