We’re creeping up the ranking with a tiny bit of help from a couple of servers from work (dual 2.8HT Xeon’s) and everything at home. Any tips on getting Boinc to work faster? I heard a nasty rumour that MS machines get better credit than Linux machines (using FC2 -> 5), any reason?

Long time no see, although I did spy you in the Rosetta stats, was hoping you would make an appearance here 
MS machines under current Boinc do get a bit more in benchmark results, and in turn try to claim more credit from the project servers. Take a peek at the optimised clients thread (sticky at top of crunchers cafe), that certainly helps with the linux “drag”.
I may just have to infect Gala’s machine with new boinc soon :devil: well, if you haven’t beaten me to it !! :lol:
Last thing BobCat (so others know what we are talking about) posted was a pic of the new bike ages ago. So how are things ?

Good to hear from you BJ. Great you’re upping the crunching 
Hi all,
Yep we’re both still here, just thought we’d give the computers some grief and do a bit of good at the same time. I’ll try the tweks mentioned later and see if I can eek a bit more out of the systems yet.
DT - some pics of the new bike are here http://www.dburchell.co.uk/rvf400/rvf.html

creeping up my 
24th in the team already, you can tell that’s not just Bobcats smelleron :lol:
DT.
Great to see you crunching BJ!
one note to add, there is a boinc app that is susposed to, as I understand it, “correct” the credits claimed to even out the field. However at this point in the night I am unable to successfully locate what it is and even if it works.
I’m sure by the time I sober up someone will correct me or know the app I’m talking about
thra is Trux’s calbrating cleint
and it worked wonders on my linux box
