Re: Minnesota Crunchers

It is nice out. Looks like snow Monday. A few more feet would be nice. Seems we are having January weather. January will be interesting. Finally got word my ssd's finally shipped. Haven't decided if I want to crunch on them or use them as a OS only disk.
Joe, better be real good to mama Santa if you want another cruncher. laughing

Re: Minnesota Crunchers

Nice picture. Not much wind as I see the snow has piled straight up. Not that much here yet. We have about 12in.(30 cm). It is currently snowing now with about 7 to 8 inches( 18 to 20cm) expected tonight. The snow is fine and dry, with little wind blowing. 20F(-7C) now, so pretty warm.

Cheers

Re: Minnesota Crunchers

Just finished plowing the driveway. About 5 inches. A bit soar from my disco grams today. Pretty painful. Won't go through that again. UT, nice picture. Brink, how's the cruncher coming along?

Re: Minnesota Crunchers

The new rig is humming right along. At gpugrid I've accumulated 191,059 points already. Easy to do when each work unit is 9,000-12,000 points each. shock

The ssd drive is fast. I'm just astounded on how fast ubuntu boots up. Now I'm looking to put another 6 gig of ram in it. Bring it up to 12 gig. devilish

Re: Minnesota Crunchers

Looks like you have a nice ssd. Have you tried crunching cep2 on it? If so, can you check crunching time vs actual time. The cheap ssd drives I ordered don't have the sand force mechanism but hope it's faster than a regular hard drive. Probably use a an OS plus some apps but put boinc on a regular drive.

Re: Minnesota Crunchers

I've done CEP2, DDDT2, CCW and HCMD2. Right now my queue is full of DDDT2 W/U's.
I will grab a couple CEP2 W/U's and let you know.

Re: Minnesota Crunchers

Finally upgraded the slow cruncher. Those woodcrest xeons were a bit slow. Moved my e5420's to my 3rd cruncher. Put a E5472 in the second cruncher. Hopefully find another soon. If anyone knows of a good deal on a E5472 E0 stepping, please let me know. Should put me over until the sandy bridge chips been out for a little while. Looks to be good pricing on them.
