KWSN Orbiting Fortress

LanDroid · Starting Stats 11/6/11:

By a strong majority of 11 votes out of 17, the Project of the Month for December 2011 is Distributed Data Mining. There is precedence for this, we crunched SHA-1 two month in a row way back near the beginning of the PotM journey.

KWSN will not state why we're doing this - don't want to wake up a sleeping giant.

I have let Nico know we are sticking around and he will do his best to keep the queues filled.

It has been noticed that the site does a disappearing act every so often and is unreachable for several minutes at a time. Nico has noticed this especially with our heavier load on it. He is looking into the situation and is working with others to see how to adjust. It seems that a lot of the stat sites run their feeds near the same time and may be taxing their system at that period of time, as it seems to happen hourly at about the same time.

Maybe some of the stats sites could work together to stop overtaxing the smaller guys.

Anyway, on to #1 and some good buffer afterward!

I want to congratulate DoW for taking the #1 shrubber on DDM, overtaking the project admin Nico. Nice job. #ni-1

Does that mean he automatically becomes admin?

DOW may have one of the best productions right now, but he is a ways away from the top overall and Sir John bested him yesterday. Looks to be shaping up for an exciting race... http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=users&proj=ddm

Great news for all of those who had issues (like myself) with DDM finding Java. Nico has a new version out that uses the Java path(s) instead of the Windows path(s) which fixes what Windows breaks during some Windows patches (IE9 is one of them).

So try it out! Help us create a grandiouscious buffer that we deserve (yes I like making up words).

Let's make this project understand why we should be #1!

Shrub away.

I ran into a new problem. My security software updated to a new version, now it seems to find dDM suspicious, it uses >50% CPU whenever dDM WUs are running. When I suspend the dDM WUs, AV usage drops to 0%. Confused

It's always something. #Mad

I use Avast Free and the latest version of the dDM WUs and have no problems at all. Also see if you can add it to an exception list

All in good fun mr. Phred. You have squeeked past me but if the current WU would hurry up and finish I could pass you again. I find it rare that my efforts have me pass active team members in a project so I am enjoying our mini contest here #ni-1
