I'm still trying to get through one SOB which I'm not gonna give up on since it's at about 85%. I was hoping to free up that core before the challenge, but hopefully it will be available before the challenge is done.

In any event, we're still doing pretty good. Keep up the fine work everybody!

So does running 75% 3 out of 4 cores crunch more/faster or do 3 run WU's faster but about the same daily production as 4?

What is the answer oh wise man!

this might be my last PG race. I have a quad that has wu's with 14 hour time up to 100 hours. that sucks for a race that doesn't last much more than the 100 hours.

I'm with Musketeer 2. The long challenges really irritate me. The run times are all over the place and the machine doesn't seem to have anything to do with it.

Now down to one Intel Core 2 Quad Q6700 that's in a tiny case and overheats if I actually try to use all four cores at the same time. On the other hand, it makes for a very nice home theater PC

Update time as of 9am PST this morning.

We are still in 5th, but within striking distance of 4th if 4 even really exists.

I like the challenges, but not the long WU's #ni-1

I like the PSP Seive work. At least there is a benefit to running a 64 bit OS. Well, after a 24 hour late start I'm begining to show some progress! I'm up to 168 as of this post. So far it looks like we are solidly in 5th.

I had four go 27 hours while an T5750 and my Athlon 7850 crank them out in under 20 and sometimes down around 15. It just doesn't make any sense at all.

I have found that sometimes a WU will error out, but it won't stop the app that was processing it. Exit the BM (File -> Exit), and start the Task Manager (Control - Alt - Delete) and see if there are any 321LLR tasks running...

Oh, and if you are running MW or DNETC or GPUGrid or Collatz, or anything on the GPUs, the 321s will take longer...

Update time, we are still 5th, though not a solid one. We could move up to 4th easily, but also Ukraine is making a strong push from the 6th spot.

4 Sicituradastra. 13997123.85
5 The Knights Who Say Ni! 13145012.57
6 Ukraine 11156971.22
7 BOINC@Poland 10731931.68

Ni

Also after two challenges we are currently ranked 14th overall, maybe a good showing here will get us close to 10th overall.
