LOL! I like the new rules. What kinda machines is he running anyways?
WFO runs illegal machines, stolen parts, hacked O/S's, and uses an extension cord from his neighbors house to power his farm...:rofl::rofl::rofl:

It's btw against Stanford rules, but then again, they should take better care of our hw by supplying us with enough wu's on a steady base. Udmon 'hacks' queue.dat, and can make your client dl a few wu's at a time so if the servers go down like they tend to do, you got a buffer of units to crunch.
The downside is, for the science it's not good. The return time for wu's is what's important, and caching means slower return times. Want points? Udmon is a choiche. Want to follow the rules and do the best for science, don't. Same as dual smp's or single smp's not counting oc's. When I where able to clock 600mhz higher I would run dual smp's but at current clocks, yes I would get more points but my turnaround time would drop 20%.

I only wish my farm looked like that. :yepp: Gawd from 14:30 yesterday till 20:00 I was continuously stopping and restarting clients trying to avoid downtime. I couldn't keep up. I went to bed with 5 clients idle and woke up with 8. :(
The new rules are well... interesting Dak. :rofl:
Edit: This afternoon I think I'm going to put Vista on the other 2 X 9800GX2 machine just so I can run another SMP and make up for some of the lost points due to server issues.
i think the new rules are just fine, put in place to keep the teams somewhat even :D
You know WFO you are in Stanford's area of the country maybe you should pay PG a visit and help correct their server problem maybe a slight attitude adjustment might be in order their NV gpu2 assignment servers have went from bad to worse. I would suggest a base ball bat for the attitude adjustment tool maybe if you took out a couple of their crap servers they would be forced to upgrade to ones that could handle the load.
lol.. maybe he could run around the server room yelling --> "FIRE! http://smiliesftw.com/x/aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.gif FIRE!"
Guys please, enough with the remarks about 'mental problems' when refering to the PG or refering to using baseball bats.
The first is insultive towards people who I will bet my life on have more 'mental capacity' then op, the second is just bad taste.
In serieusness, it's not funny at all :down:
Naw not "Fire! :cheer2: Fire!"
More like "Danger! :cheer2: Danger! Will Robinson
Marvin the baseball bats were for use on the antiquate defective server not for PG group to help facilitate a server upgrade to fix the problem If the said server was in a pile of broken bits then they would have to upgrade and with any luck the upgraded server would be better than the current POS.Quote:

I am sorry Marvin I was just trying to blow off some steam caused by the frustration of not being able to get wu's for my gpu2 client which has been a recurring problem which has been getting worse over the last few weeks. The bashing was just meant as a release valve for the stress I myself and others have been facing with this latest gpu2 server problem.Quote:

When I went to sleep I had no GPU2s, same thing when I woke up. :shakes: Maybe they should move the coffee pot, snack machines, coke machines and such and put them in there where the servers are...
Edit: @ Mike and people will get p/o ed sometimes and quit...
:bs: No it doesn't HACK queue.dat. It simply auto creates multiply working folders and sets up many clients ot he same PC. You could actually do it manually, but it would be tiresome. It creates a nice little GUI for that.Quote:
