    Is your internet uncapped ?

    If you have an unmetered internet connection why not get majestic 12 up and running for the team, we are currently working our way up the rankings. 5 - 10 more solid users would really make a difference.

    agreed. if there only was a version that didn't need .Net or Mono (the open sourse version of .Net) I could custom bake a version so that at full speed it wouldn't need 40Mb of ram and at snail speed it would use 20Mb and a system with just 256MB of ram could run 10 Virtual rigs

    You will also need mono if you run it on linux.

    If you set the archiver to a longer delay, than it will use less cpu clocks (ie 100 or 120). If you set the number of crawlers too high, then that will affect your bandwith. 100 workers is supposed to be good for 2mb down, so you should give 30 a try.

    Man, it uses a freaking large amount of download bandwith

    Running 3 days now @ 3Mbit, and already done 5GB, WTF? We still have a fair use policy, so I'll have to cap it for a week or so until we get 10Mbit uncapped

    This project does use some CPU but shouldnt take alot away from the CPU intensive projects as its mosty based on bandwidth. Its very hungry, but on the bright side its relatively easy to gain big points if you have a big pipe. So its not down to farm size just down to pipe.

    The only time it really uses CPU is when it's uploading, but it can use around 40% when uploading, at least it did on my 2.8 P4, so if you can, set a longer time between uploads.

    Are you using a router?? If not, you can give somewhere around 200 or 250 crawlers and 30 open url buckets. Check the manual:

    Its a little old, but still helps.

    You will get better results with your connection when you use multiple computers. Install MJ12 across 3 or 4 computers. You should lay down some good numbers, around 2.5-3 million a day.

    Hey Gomoler, if you're interested, RogueAgent06 and I are running under the XSTM name. You can join up with us if you want. If you need the PW, let me know.

    To join the XS team, you dont need a PW.. To join the The Machine, just pm Dragon..

    Thanks to everyones help, we are laying down between 13-15 million a day. That roughly 30% more than FDC puts out and 45% more than norway is laying down!

    To elaborate on what NN Step is talking about, this will only work IF and i mean IF, when you setup your VM's, make damn sure that the workgroup they belong to is not in relation to your actual networking workgroup. To give you an example, my main workgroup i use in my network is Net... When i had set up all of my VM's, i placed them on workgroup DIMES.. This way, there is no access to your main workgroup. You have to remember that VMWare uses bridge networking.
