New beta client (5.10.21) is available. Again, it's a beta release. As the saying goes, use at your own risk.

Windows x64
Ack, I was going to mention that earlier today when I noticed it... I get distracted too easily :)
It looks like it's mostly just fixes on the 5.10 code, while they've been doing quite a bit of work on the main trunk code in comparison. I'll update the first post in a little bit.
Oops, looks like they put up a 5.10.21a tag 3 hours later on the source repository. Dunno if the download was updated with any changes they may have made or what's the difference with it, since there are no additions to the checkin_notes.
5.10.21 versions for Mac OS X were also added.

Just upgrade to 5.10.20 from 5.10.13, Look at my benchmark score @ 3.85ghz

What were you getting with 5.10.13?
3900 something for whetstone and 11000 something for Dhrystone
You may want to try re-benching tomorrow. Sometimes I get really low benchmarks right after installing a new client.
I still use 5.10.13 64-bit version with all my crunchers running on x64 OS. Never had any problems, so I've never felt any need to change.
i found out that the 5.10.13 installed in the programs files folder while 5.10.20 installed in the program files (x86). so i was thinking the 5.10.20 will take fully advantage of the 64 bits. Thats why i upgraded.
Again, you might want to try re-benching tomorrow. If the results still suck, then you can always switch back to 5.10.13.
I've been running 6.1 and its been the best so far for my lappy on vista x86 and my main desktop on vista x64.
If anyone is having issues thats on vista I suggest running 6.1:)
Geez, it looks like there's already a new version(5.10.22) coming out with a few more fixes. It was tagged just two hours ago, so it should show up on the site sometime this afternoon I'd imagine.
Yep, its on the WCG download page now - has a WCG skin whilst installing, offers to delete the UD agent if you have it installed, and some pretty slides in simple view - but not sure what the other fixes are.
Installed fine over 5.10.20, and the bench went up a tad.
Am I the only one running 6.1? I guess if it isnt broken dont fix it:p:
I am running 6.1 in my E2140 and its fine.
Ah, so I see they released 5.10.22 under the wcg boinc alias instead of the normal format, no wonder I wasn't seeing it. I've been running 6.1 on one of my machines just fine since it came out. Although it did have a spurt of errors a week ago, so I suspended the project for a while and seems to be working fine since resuming.
Can anyone verify that 6.1.0 64 bit runs on XP64? How are the benches as well? Otherwise, does anyone have an FTP to host 5.10.13 64 bit on?
I keep having boinc losing the clients with 5.10.20 and its screwing up my production (not to mention pi$$ing me off :) )
TIA

As someone already noted, a 5.10.23 beta is now available.
