At the moment I am more of the black hole type. Everything goes in and nothing out.
But this may change in the near future.

Yes exactly. I am very interested to see what will be the daily points output of such a machine.

It's now a year and half that I left the fighting arena, I see that stonageman is not on the top daily cruncher anymore. OldChap is the top guy now and movieman right behind. Movieman probably is...

Hmm!! seems that a big cruncher is going on holidays, or that finally all the computers in the basement simply melted down.
Unfortunately mine are liquid too. Temps here are over 34 Deg Celsius. Too...

Movieman wow!!. Some nitro in your engine. Can you tell us from were comes this boost?

Seems we are back to basics. Hard to throttle down by a factor of 25.
Everybody is crawling now.
And the corporations, companies, institutions are back to the top.
It was a real pleasure to beat...

Se here we are. I see that the cruncher just in front of me (rank 14) RCTCGrid has now stopped since over fifteen days. This could have helped me pass him, but now after HCC has stopped, to bridge...

WoW, Numbers start to fall brutally.:eek:

You remember your journey across the valleys. I understand that you try to get out from the Valley of Tears. But beware, if you manage to get to the neu-innova pass, you will enter the Valley of...

Careful Sam. You are on overdrive. Is it the final sprint that motivates you. Maybe you could leave some of the last GPU WUs to others. Anyway you passed the 3 billion boinc points, and 4 million...

Thanks Movieman. But tell us more. Are you talking a quad board XeonPhi machine?

WoW it was just on time. The ending of the GPU project and the rising of the external air temperatures were causing me some "anxiety".

If there is no continuation on the GPU side then the attained...

The GPU project is finishing right on time with the rising external temperatures. We are at over 20 deg Celsius here. Finally spring is here. It was a long long winter.
I am near the target of rank...

There will be a complete redefinition of the crunching hierarchy, and we will be back like six months ago. Those with many machines and no GPU will come back on top.
After all six months is a small...

Unfortuntely due to high temps I cannot run anymore full power. Seven units are out. Running on 11 machines.

Indeed jeanguy2. This is the last run. The last mile. The last sprint. The last ............:(

Still here at XtremeSystems but machines are down for Easter Holidays.
Will come back soon. :)

Anyway the cruncher in front of me in overall position 15 has become a fixed milestone. He is not...

I did two tests. Running 36 threads and 12 threads. The results are that running 36 threads the daily point production is lower than with 10 GPU threads by -12% at least. In fact the maximum value is...

If that would have been my home, then my daily score would have been over the one from IBM and cooling would not be even a topic here. :rofl:

Exactly. This is why I am very proud of the team.

Now that the target is reached, it will be slowly time to start fading in the coming spring and then summer heat.

Indeed nanoprobe. I was running 10 GPU and 2 CPU. So let's see what happens. At least 36 threads make a better use of the 6 GB RAM I have on each rig.
And even if it is better. what is the maximum...

My IO rig is now crunching with 36 threads. I am still not convinced this will increase the number of results or points per day. On the other hand it should increase the runtime.
I will let now the...

Let's see I will do some tests on one machine. But my past experience is that very quickly you start getting unstable systems, with some compute errors and some window restarts. I generally favor les...

We were so near and now back 5 millions. :mad:

Sam has probably diverted one rig from GPUGrid to WCG. We may reach the 100 million points after all.
