I'm still waiting for the weather to cool down here. It is still getting into the mid to upper 70's in the day (which runs the house up to 80-85 degrees). So for right now I'm just running my Windoze machine full time (and my Mac Pro at nights when it cools off). All my AMD machines are currently down for an experiment- a SSI (Single System Image) cluster. If that works, it will be rather cute. See if people can figure out where I found an 18 core Athlon X2 machine. _________________

That's hot? Until about Aug 4 I lived in Albuquerque, NM. The daytime temps were running around 106 degrees F outside. I now life in NJ, and the temps are cooler here (around the upper 80s to lower 90s), though it's also a rather different kind of heat; ala extremely humid by comparison.
Yes, my A64 can warm things up a fair bit though... In either state, A/C is a must  |

What part of NJ? I am in NYC, so we can possibly complain about the weather together!  _________________ Fetch me the Holy Hand Grenade!

Weather?

Well, it could be the same thing if you challenged him in CPDN That said, Milkeyway seems to be the current bet on wracking up credits fast now :s |

Well, I'm REALLY, REALLY sorry to be the bearer of sad tidings.

Well, for the moment anyway - if memory serves, Mike should be able to reverse the positions again once he cranks it all up again. _________________ Creationists believe they never evolved; I agree with them.

OK- I brought the AMD's back on-line (It bugs me to have to run a fan to keep them cool, but it is better than having to run the AC). I split them 50/50 Einstein & Milkyway, it will be curious to see how the Linux machines do on Milkyway.
PS- I HOPE BoincStats is lying- or do you now have 66 machines running?
http://boincstats.com/stats/boinc_host_stats.php?pr=bo&st=0&userid=80a2c9677fe286336bba0a711478d327
PPS- Current setup:
The machine that is named CES-PH9600B is waiting for a Phenom 9600b that should show up Tuesday. I just started it up with the 3800+ X2 to test it (to make a long story longer- I bought a 9950 to replace the 9500 I had-- then realized that the 9950 drew to much current for any of my motherboards.. OK- buy a new motherboard for the 9950, but now I have and extra AM2+ motherboard... We can't leave it sit on the shelf!).
PPPS- Also switched over from Fedora 8 to Centos 5.2 Linux (Redhat Enterprise 5 clone).
PPPPS- It is still to hot to over-clock anything- ie when it gets cool the Q6600 goes from 2.4 GHz up to 3.1, etc.
PPPPPS- If the boinc version 5.10.99 looks odd, it is. It is 5.10.8 with my "FairBench" code installed. FairBench takes the standard boinc benchmark code and runs it as a stand-alone task (one instance/core) which boinc then reads. It returns almost identical results for Windows and Linux (unlike the "stock" boinc code). Code @ http://ces-eng.net/Boinc/Boinc.html _________________

Tag- Your it!
