After nine days
I put the following on the OP's home forum here. I was not about to try my rusty german to do it, but they have an english section to post in.....:D
"Thanks for posting the Christmas Challenge...and inviting our Xtreme Systems team to it. We got a post from Erkan Yilmaz to join the challenge. Link here...http://www.xtremesystems.org/Forums/...d.php?t=238610
We had to replace a missing team captain to do it, but we got it done.
I appreciate the stated mission of spreading the word about DC you guys have here. A number of us on the Xtreme Systems team do the same thing. If our participation in this challenge helps that goal, good for all of us! You may note that there are really a small number of people on our team. But we put up large points all the time. Most of us "farm" a number of machines. Because of that, we are also pretty good about what hardware performs well and efficiently. I invite all of you to look at our forum, say hello, and let us know if we can help in maximizing your DC contribution. If you have found ways to increase our contribution, that would be very welcome too. :good:
I wish all of you a very Merry Christmas!
I know a number of people on my team could say this better, on the German side of the forum, since they are in your country, but I thought I'd say it in American English from the Pacific Northwest, USA.
Regards,
Bob"

That would be 20M, actually... :)
If it was only 20K, I'd be firing up some of these antiques to push us ahead !
Just a walk in the park for XS WCG... WE DRINK YOUR EGGNOG !!! :D
This is like being in the Indy 500 and having a 15 lap lead 1/2 way through!:rofl:
Yeah.. unfortunately, we won't make the 200 mil :(
We should be really close though if not above 200M.Quote:

Everyone, buy another i7 or two, stat!
Yeah, if only..!
I'm sure there's got to be a pile of viable short-term crunchers up there in the Northern Snow-isphere ... from memory Dave has a quad server that dims the street lights when it starts and Scott might still have his old fleet on site if not running. There's bound to be more out there for a short term push, surely.Quote:

What is this and why do you need 200 million? Just a team goal or is there a prize involved?
Congrats to all of us and KEEP ON BURNING!! The finish line is in sight, but in true XS style let's run at full speed all the way through the finish line tape, and keep on going! :up::rofl:
My numbers are looking reasonably good right now since this challenge has caused me to remove, or re-adjust, some slackers I had going. Seems that the farm is a bit more efficient. I actually down-clocked a problem machine and it's producing better....Go figure.....
Regards,
Bob
