Hi, currently this are the following results... <a href="http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=872328">Result 872328</a>: 28 Trickles and 2551.97 of ~2646,56 credits <a href="http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=780535">Result 780535</a>: 34 Trickles and 3119.08 of ~3213,68 credits <a href="http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=698345">Result 698345</a>: 60 Trickles and 5576.53 of ~5671,20 credits <a href="http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=677468">Result 677468</a>: 72 Trickles and 6710.74 of ~6805.26 credits and some other results... normally credits are corrected if an additional trickle gets in. Ciao

This new problem started with the rebuild of server software. So for all hosts all trickles that are send to cpdn are shown but for some hosts the granted credit doesn't match the number of trickles times ~94.52 According to this also the total credit isn't correct. Ciao

Look at this completed run: <a href="http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=677468">Reult 677468</a> Its completed... all trickles are received but credit is still wrong.

So it should have got 28*94.52=2646,49 credits... but result page is showing always 2457.46 indicating that two trickles weren't credited. Ciao

This would be the best for admins but this tears away the influence of original author 'cause everyone can make changes as he thinks. It's not easy to put responsibility of your one loved child away and having nearly nothing to do with further development.

54) Message boards : Number crunching : Again sec/TS is abnormal rising... (Message 11309) Posted 23 Mar 2005 by old_user2467 Post: Mystery resolved. Hi @all! The mystery of increasing sec/TS has resolved. The tips of thermal throttling and of insufficiently cooling where both helpfull. I opened the case of my noteboook and looked at the cpu cooler. From the outside of the case it looked normal and not contaminated with to much dust. But looking at the cooler from inside the case revealed the problem. The transition from the cooler channel to the heatsink was clogged with dust. So the air couldn't reach the heatsink and cpu was getting to hot. This caused the thermal throttling feature to intervene. The resulting glaringly difference between measuered benchmark results before and after is amazing.

55) Message boards : Number crunching : CPU Load of boinc.exe? (Message 11242) Posted 21 Mar 2005 by old_user2467 Post: Hi, I've updated to Boinc v4.25 on one machine running Einstein. System requirements are to high to use it for Cpdn. But on this pc I saw boinc.exe using about 10% of CPU. Boinc v4.19 wasn't using so much processing power. Has anyone else observed a significant CPU load of boinc.exe? I think this goes back to the RPC calls Boinc manager is doing every second. But if Boinc manager is closed down and boinc.exe is running alone with einstein_xxx.exe the boinc.exe CPU load remains about the 10 perc. Any suggestions?

58) Message boards : Number crunching : When will a 64-bit version Bionic be released? (Message 11223) Posted 21 Mar 2005 by old_user2467 Post: Tell me if I'm wrong. But 64bit windows only brings an advantage if you use more than 4GB of memory cause of 32bit can't address to memory up the 4BG frontier. So you may only see performance gains if you're running appilcations with huge memory needs so that the system has to permanently use paging files.

Some trickles ago the notebook crashed. After this I suspected cpdn rewinded to beginning of the actual trickle. But I'm now not sure.
