Countdown, T-500 Million, approaching.

[Frisch]

This is the official Free-DC BBQ Thread.

This is where you harass Free-DC. :D

Every 100 mill from T-500 will be stated here in big red numbers. :yepp: :D

[Mekoa]

2 Free-DC 8,392,067,533 173,440,863
3 XtremeSystems 7,808,244,697 134,065,504

So close! Wouldve been closer but my server restarted during the night cos of some Windoze update :(

Wish I could OC my Opty 165, motherboard is made of fail though!

Only 1.9billion to Team Norway also :D

[Frisch]

T-500 Mill :D

[Mekoa]

492.6 now :D Doing about 5-6mill more a day than them I think, shouldnt take too long ^^

[DeadlyFire]

I really like the sound of this whole deal! :) I hope Free-DC is ready for the pain-train, cuz it's coming their way :D



btw, someone poke gramps and tell him the knights (http://www.kwsnforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=9814&sid=2d51713b6e3a709b0352f6ab84a2f4bf) are at him again :ROTF: :sofa:

Bah at Grizz. He runs twice as many machines as Dave and doesnt beat him by much ;-)

Hmmm, seems to be an increasing amount of unlogged in guests in the MJ-12 section, used to appear only once in a while, but now when ever i look in the MJ-12 section there is at least one unlogged in guest. :para:

Same here brother!!! :D :D

[Mekoa]

Meh, my PC is acting up again. Apologies for lack of MJ12 for the next few days. I cant seem to get it running stable with WCG (2 threads) and MJ12. Sometimes runs for hours then crashes, sometimes 5 mins. Need to get it stable with both!

[Frisch]

I'm in a moving situation, so i'm not logging in as often.

And as dave is daily trying to rape the net, we're fine.

Two thumbs up for all of us, we're the nets worst nightmare. :D

[Mekoa]

Was gonna post my connection stats for like the last 24 days or so, 1TB downloaded lol. My ISP will hate me.

Seem to have WCG and MJ12 running OK now, had to lower CPU usage on WCG.

Go go go 24/7 crunnnchhhhh :D

My thanks to all that have helped!:clap:

Ahh, not that long..In maybe a month I'm going to add a 2nd 15/2line here that will be just for MJ12..That I will max and get 10mil a day from by itself.

[Mekoa]

I need to win the lottery or something, or install MJ12 on all of DDT's machines. My 9mbit line can only do so much! get about 2.2mill a day tho :o

Hey, beleive me,that 2 mil helps a lot..
It's a team and we need everyone. I'm just lucky to be in the right place to get a fast line.

[Mekoa]

This line is 24mbit, but its DSL. Im too far away from the exchange to get more. Plus I usually only run it on 1 machines 24/7 (folks house, cant leave main rig on all the time).

Glad to help though :)

Yea, I had that problem. Over 30,000 ft from the switch station so too far for DSL(17,000 ftmax)..Just got lucky that my little hick town has the same tel exchange as the BIG city beside me and Verizon did the change by tel exchange..

I see MrSlinky is back with us also..Thanks John!:up:

I've tested the little trick Dave suggested and it seems to be doing great :) I've got 3 machines(+1 "other" machine) running currently; question is how many more can I put on before the law of diminishing returns kicks in?

What's your ISP? I had the same letter just in different wording from Verizon not even a month after I got Fios. It went something like this:



3.7.1 You may not resell the Broadband Service, use it for high volume purposes, or exceed the bandwidth usage limitations that Verizon may establish from time to time for the Service.

Well, on a Danish company, of course, called TDC. But what's more complicated about this is, that we are a complex sharing a big line.
That's why it has taken them so long to figure it out.
To be honest, some of the other users had phoned the company and complained about their line being slow. ( cause of me, but they coudn't figure it out. :D )
But now i'm busted. :( :rolleyes:

Well, anyways, as i said before, i'm moving, so I have to get another connection. And i'll be off for a while.

You guys are doing fine without me, and I'd say i've done a pretty big amount for the team.

But rest assure "i'll be back" :cool: :)

When I signed up for FIOS I told them about MJ12 and the bandwidth it uses. Not an issue according to them." We have plenty of bandwidth" and I asked for that and got it in writing BEFORE I signed up.
No letters or nothing here so far..;)

I'm on a crap laptop right now (MJ12 uses up pretty much all the CPU power :eek: ) so I can't run MJ12 all the time, but as soon as I can fix my GT and get back on my desktop, you've got another dedicated 5mb line :up:

Might have to contact Alex and see if he has any ideas.

I thought the version it shows is the version of MJ12 you are using? Ie 1.5.0 etc.

Just dont want you being penalised for something weird! And yeah, be a good idea to let Alex know.

Have already let Alex know, it weird how the uptime shows v.1.5.0 and the version parts something weird.
I haven't even mentioned how the upstream and downstream are totally wrong either.

What you need to consider is not just your pipe, you have to consider all the pipes between you and your destination.
Hong Kong for example has a bandwidth limited to 25Mbps, if you destination is overseas.
I could have got myself a 1000Mbps line, but it would be pretty pointless as anything overseas is limited to 25Mbps.

A chain is only as strong as the weakest link ;)

[Mekoa]

Its European Giganews servers, sure the outbound EU pipes for my current ISP are in the several Gbit range. At the minute, I know for a fact that 24mbit on EU Giganews gets maxxed. 2.5mb/s all the way. Probably be able to go higher!

But yeah, you are right :)

[hixie]

I've also found something that will give a slight boost in points if your bandwidth usage is high enough, got to properly test it first before i can be sure ;)

[Mekoa]

Pretty sure on my single machine, bandwidth down is always between 5500-7000kbit/s. Not bad for a 9mbit line I guess? Can only really do 100k an hour though :(

[hixie]

Well actually i made a bit of a mistake on my post above, it's not if your bandwidth usage is high enough, it's if the number of workers you have is high enough.

[Mekoa]

30 buckets, 110 workers at the minute. Crawling been a bit strange over the last few days. Its going over 30 buckets, giving errors, but not crawling a lot. Must be small domains its using or something.

Hey - I have a question for you regular MJ12 guys, how often does an ISP throttle your connection for 24/7 crawling? My dad's work computer is on the same connection as me (it's his connection, really) so it's rather important that I don't mess anything up. I've been a little scared to leave it on 100% for any extended period of time because of that. We're on charter :sick:.


Also, wanted to let you know that I have a brand-new GT (complete with voltage jumper so I don't kill it again :D )incoming tuesday or wednesday, so I'll finally be up and running. I'm sick of doing 50% on this laptop, but anything more overloads the harddrive :ROTF:

It really depends on your ISP, my ISP doesn't throttle my bandwidth. If they did throttle my bandwidth then it's :slapass:

[kodiak kid]

hey guys...I posted in one of the other threads but I let mine run 100&#37; for roughly 14hrs today. hope it helps :D

edit: how often should my sig update the stats? I've been at this for 48 hrs yet still no #s in my sig :(

[[XC] riptide]

Have you put the correct items in your statstool? My MJ-12 number for example is 1011.


http://www.majestic12.co.uk/projects/dsearch/userinfo.php?id=2248
Your number ID is 2248 ;)

I don't see you WCG name on stats. But my statstool for WCG is riptideXtremeSystems. That been riptide on team XtremeSystems

It doesn't really seem like you're using as much as you could be, though. 100mb :rolleyes: Have you ever maxed that out for any extended period of time? I think I'd have trouble maxing out a 10mb connection.

[kodiak kid]

ok....I got the MJ-12 part fixed... And either my connection sucks or something is wrong...my numbers for yesterday suck!

What kind of connection do you have? I.E. 3mb, 5mb ?

Edit: also, check out the MJ12 tweaking guide (http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=149972) it helped me double my output.

[Paladin]

I know someone that allegedly borrowed 50% of a neighbor's Charter:sick: cable connection between midnight & 6am. There was never any ISP initiated throttling or service interruption.

I do grab a lot of files from ah...friends :wasntme: if they happen to be on local servers then i can max my connection but only for about 30mins if it's a very very large file(s), if it's the usual 300MB files then it over in a couple minutes.
So my answer is no, i haven't really maxed my bandwidth of any extended periods of time.

If you really want to know that it feels like to have 100MB connection, then i have 3 machines running MJ-12 at full throttle and 2 of those machines are grabbing files, opening a webpage loads just as fast without those programs opened :rofl:

So i'm defiantly not limited by my bandwidth, i'm limited by my machines.

Hixie, why not give windows xp SP3 a try? Worth a shot. If that doesnt help, then my next guess would be give windows 2000 a shot. What is the problem??

[Mekoa]

My crawling speed has dropped a fair bit recently. Hardly doing any URL's either :(

Might delete all my current buckets and retry.

[Mekoa]

Im at a loss with my crawling speeds. They seem horrifically low compared to normal. I wiped all my urls and buckets last night and it shot up for a bit. Judging that Ive done like a 5th of my normal URLs today compared to normal, I think somethings wrong. Any ideas?

[Frisch]

To help you Mekoa, we need you to post your settings.

But it's a bad url load we're running, lower success rate.

[Mekoa]

Im sensing a lot of angst against my wonderful country here :(

Hadrians Wall was built to keep you lot OUT! :D

As for my stats, I think it was CN buckets that killed my crawling. I had about 80&#37; CN and I was hardly crawling at all. Disabled it for now, will check later.

Stats are exactly the same as they were previously, changed nothing (server runs 24/7). 30 buckets, 110 works, most priorities on normal (WCG runs too).

[vaio]

Ah, Livingston----home of the Sky tv phone call spammers :D
Go for it Hadrian :) .........they must be worried now, 41 of them to our 17 teamies :D

[Mekoa]

Indeed it is Sky TV Call Centre central. About 10 mins from my work as well :D

Still having issues with crawling I think. Might have to up priorities on work threads again :/

[vaio]

I am half Scottish myself :D
My family is currently considering relocating to there.

If you can pm me any suggestions of nice areas to live that'd be cool :)
(preferably quite close to a good college/uni).

[Mekoa]

Scotland is wayyyy better than England!

As for areas to live, I probably really couldnt say. I dont know much about places other than Edinburgh and Livingston (born Edinburgh, lived through here most of my life).

Theres a college in Livingston which my dad lectures at, its not bad. Few semi OK areas here too.

Edinburgh has some really nice places to live, but are expensive. Most are close to 1 or more Universities too. Unsure about colleges.

[kodiak kid]

ok...in my sig..it says my team rank is 56...When I started I was 63....I am assuming I am doing pretty well then? Also, would it help the team out to run MJ12 on 2 more computers?

[Mekoa]

If you run it on multiple PC's, chances are it will easily max out your connection. PC crunching power of crawling is dependant here, not just the speed of your line.

Look at some of the big crawlers, they have 3-6 machines running at once.

ok...it looks like my P4-D @ 3.2 is only runing at about 10% of my avail bandwidth... so maybe I'll add in the two laptops as well and see what happens :D I just use the same user name and password...right?

[vaio]

Same info for all your machines, and yes, more is always better when it comes to crunching :D

[Mekoa]

More is always better, hell yeah.

Once you go quad, youll need a better job.

You know what a grouch he is in the morning :rofl:

Hes probably hungover. Ill bet he drank 1 beer for each year hes been alive yesterday. 56 in total!

[vaio]

so it won't only be WU caches that he'll be flushing today then :D

[Mekoa]

Lol. Probably not. No idea if Dave did much for his 56th yesterday, dont even know if he drinks!

[Mekoa]

Well, seems as though my crawling has vaguely reinserted itself almost back to normal. 60-70k an hour now, which aint far off what I did before (on the good URLs). Reckon it mustve been though CN domain buckets that were causing the issue.

[vaio]

Was hoping to get a good mil today but my daughter keeps putting it on snooze cos it crawls surfing to a halt.

And yay 100mill to go :D CN/Info domains were borking my crawling again. Disabled for now ^^

[DeadlyFire]

In comes the last nail :D

Yesterday for some reason, I got a BSOD with stop error code 0x40000080 but I didn't find out until I got home from work this morning so MJ12 was down for 7+ hours :mad: I know MJ12 gives the hard drive a beating so I'll run a hd diagnostic first and then memtest if that passes. Hope it's nothing serious :)

[Mekoa]

Erk, hope its not serious deadly. Im running mine on a 120gb Maxtor IDE drive... its failed before, but seems to be OK with Server 2003 and Mj12/WCG running 24/7 heh.

[Paladin]

90&#37;+ of the HDDs I replace are white label Maxtors between 80-160GB. I have two here -- one dead now, other I don't put anything on that isn't disposable. There are firmware updates for some of them.

[DeadlyFire]

After running memtest for a few hours and checking the hd they both seem fine. I did some googling and this bsod sometimes comes up after sustained downloading over 1 Mbps for extended periods of time :confused: First time for me in 3 months of MJ12 so hopefully it's a rare, one-off thing....

That's interesting..most of my MJ12 work was done on 2-36 gig raptors in raid0.. Now it's on a ide and sata 80gig..
Lets see how long till POOF!:rofl:

[Mekoa]

I have 2 spare drives, both of which are dodgy (Maxtor again, surprise surprise). Ill use them as backups if my 120GB falls over heh.

Tempted to build a 3rd machine but I dont have a spare small graphics card. Ran out of router ethernet ports too :(

too far to ship cards..time for a cheap switch..

[Mekoa]

I use a Speedtouch DSL router (configured for Be* internet in the UK). Really need to get an 8 port switch and use it in bridged mode or something.

Hmm.. Ive actually got an 8 port switching hub. Might have to configure that tonight to use it in bridged mode.

As for graphics cards, ive got an X850 XT PE lying around somewhere, but the noise it makes is horrendous lol.

A good switch and a bad switch will make a difference. Mostly due to the switching capacity.

[Movieman]

OT but I had put a limit in MJ12 while I was grabbing some mov...ahhh,Files a few days ago and forgot to reset back to "raping net speed"
Wondered why my numbers were so down.
Back at full " 30 seconds to open a web page" speed now!:D

[Paladin]

Similar OT, but true -- since I use a VoIP as my primary voice line I have to snooze MJ12 when the wife calls a friend. I figure there's no way she'll gab more than an hour as set it to that. An hour later she comes in complaining asking if I turned on some network game or such that messed up the phone... underestimated again. :slash: Now I snooze 3 hour blocks.

I'm not sure if I should be glad or sad that my wife doesn't know how to snooze it herself like Vaio's pup. :dog:

[Mekoa]

Never used VoIP save at work here.

Im beginning to hate auto update as well. Server restarted last night due to some update, GAH! Lost crunching time :(

Mekoa;2773990']Nothing to apologise for mate. She was old and in pain. Had lots of mini stroke type things then had a massive brain thing one morning. Pretty much the end there.

She led a long life (probably longer than I will!) :D

Anyway, it led me into the other insult story which was kinda funny.

So pray tell.. how long before Team Norway gets trumped of the top spot? :D

Tomorrow we talk Norway.
Today is for partying!:D

Well done guys! Wish I could contribute myself. T-500 did not last long.

[Frisch]

We forgot to congratulate Paladin hitting the 100 Mill. :up:

@ riptide, we acknowledge your 10 mill, hug them ever now and then. Where would we have been without them ? A sad team, 10 mills of the record....:yepp:

[Movieman]

One of the nice things here at Xs is no matter what app you get into there are the big guys and the little guys and all work well together.
Personally Idon't care what anyone contributes on a given day.
Everyone knows what they can do and that works.
We all have good days and bad days.
Right now I'm trying to get 8 years of a TV series and thats cutting into my output but not much longer.

Now, are you guys ready for the "big one"?
App 1.4 billion to run down our beloved friends at Team Norway.
Isn't going to be fast or easy and they will fight back I assure you.
So clean out the fans, make sure those CAT5 lines are in place and lets go get us some Kippers!:up:

Hey Carl,Refic et al..We're coming!

Well... its not exactly 10mill.... but its put an idea in my head. I might just see what happens if I can get to 10mil.

Hey pal,we'll take anything..even a 1000 a day helps..:up:

Gratz Paladin! Big numbers ftw.

And Dave is right, every little helps :)

Congrats on your milestone :up:

[Paladin]

Thanks. :toast: Had to get past OC-Ghost after his special boost past me. :p:

Like MM, my bandwidth being used a bit for p2p'ing "public-domain ethics training videos". ;) ...and when the wife is yakking on the VoIP phone.

LOL. Well i was hoping to add abit... but. I'm confused as to why those 9 buckets I uploaded are not showing on the stats.

The MJ12 website shows the node, but not the stats. :shrug:

[Mekoa]

Stats update on the hour every hour. When were the 9 uploaded?

[[XC] riptide]

Mekoa;2779568']Stats update on the hour every hour. When were the 9 uploaded?

Mekoa... your in the same zone as me. GMT. Check out the time on the client. they're uploaded ages by now.

Good point. Was at work when I posted... brain dead :p

Unsure tbh. Your error rate is high though, that isnt good :o

Well I got me answers form Alex. Seems that the client neglected to send old buckets back to teh server. And just kept crawling using those POS ones from back in August '07 (last time I ran on that laptop). Those buckets would have been reallocated anyways and my completed ones were not accepted. Should sort itself out in a while. I hope.

EDIT: Just seen my first bucket come through. :D Heres to the March to 10mil.

[vaio]

Managed to rustle up 5 mil or so to date.
Will be back with the other 15 mil I promised when you are closer to the ultimate target :)

Happy pinging :D

[[XC] riptide]

hehe! Em.. crawling you mean. Pinging is Dimes. Crawling is MJ12, puppy.

Thanks!:up:

Might be worth deleting everything in the data folder and starting afresh.

[[XC] riptide]

Its working alright now. :)

[Mekoa]

Probably cleared out the old barrels.

Is your connection capped btw? Noticed you had only selected ie/uk domains.

[[XC] riptide]

Mekoa;2782205']Probably cleared out the old barrels.

No its not capped really. Cos I'm in ireland, i reckoned ie. and uk would be better for me.

[Mekoa]

Yeah closer to home usually is, but UK connections are usually quite stable heh. I crawl everything except CN and INFO at the minute. Those 2 seem to cause me a lot of grief.

[Deluge]

Does anyone know if MJ12 works in vista? Whenever I try to run it I get this:

I can't deal with the thought of using my laptop again, so help is much appreciated :up:

[Mekoa]

I run it fine on Vista x64 Ultimate.

That is one random error though. Tried wiping it off completly and reinstalling a fresh with 1.5.0?

[kodiak kid]

running on vista 64 ultimate here too...not even a hint of an issue...

I agree with mekoa...try a fresh start :D

[kodiak kid]

just noticed something in my stats...on the far right...does that mean my team rank is #2 for the day? if so...Kewlio!

i started out about 2 weeks ago at team rank 64...made it all the way up to 35 already...Woohoo!


/fluffing my ego :D

wonder if adding another computer into it help my #s.....hmmmmm

You'll find that it just might. More than one PC usually can max a line out even more... if its a good fat pipe.

[kodiak kid]

might have to give it a try ;)

Yep, that's the damn truth! :D

Fine on home premium :)

[Movieman]

I need 3 PC's to max my 15/2 line..
Clover,Quad and the FX51..God thats a little brute for one core!:up:
Makes no sense to run it but I can't shut it off.
Like the "little engine that could":ROTF:

3 machines to max 15MB, so 15/3=5.
5MB/machine

So in theory i would need 100MB/5=20
20 Machines! to max 100MB

I think i better start renting out some bandwidth

Well you have what, 6 on the go at the minute? I vote more 'special' machines!

[hixie]

Mekoa;2784336']Well you have what, 6 on the go at the minute? I vote more 'special' machines!

Nope, i have one machine :hehe: and 2 'special' machines
The machine in my shop is literally limping across the domains.

Don't worry i'll be getting a 'special' system built to run 'special' machines ;)
