Thanks! I think I\'m going to terminate while I\'m still ahead and go get some more horsepower to help this along.

Thanks for that minimum requirement as well.

Best regards,
Brad

Is this normal?

I\'m donating 100% of an old Dell PowerEdge 6300 server. (4) Intel Pentium 3 Xeon 550 MHz Processors, 2 GB of RAM, Windows 2003 Server, Enterprise Edition w/ SP1.

All 4 processors are maxed out at 100%. All non-essential services and processes have been stopped. Each BOINC process has 24 or 25% of the total onboard processor time.

Did I just get a large work load? Am I doing something wrong and wasting electricity?

At this rate it\'ll be a little over 2.3 years to reach 100%

Regards,
Brad

Carl, the project chief software engineer has now said that there will be no further work for the Mac OS.

\'We have all the slabs & sulphurs we\'ll need and it would just be a waste of electricity. I\'m afraid the only hope for CPDN Mac\'s in the future would be Intel Macs: (a) if I can ever convince anyone to get us one and
(b) if we ever have the time, although from what I\'ve heard it should be a lot similar to our Linux builds since Intel Fortran for the Mac is available (Intel Fortran is what we use on Windows & Linux)\'



that is unfortunate. cpdn was an interesting project. guess we mac users will take our wasted electricity elsewhere.



Fritz -
I have a Mac question for you. If you see this post, please e-mail me chuy@infopioneers.com.

Thank you,
Brad
