For the cep2, that's 19 minutes difference, and not done yet. If you can, let us know what the difference is when completed. Surprised it's that large already on a ssd. Going to dedicate my 4 core to cep2 to push it over the 1 year mark, then decide from there if I switch or not. Would like to get 2 years completed. ~24 minutes CPU Time 10:16:15 Elapsed time 10:40:21 That's not so bad. I would run the project on your SSD and get your 2 years, but that's just my opinion. I like blue.  |

I like blue. That's only doing one at a time. When you do 4 or 8 at the same time, the difference jumps to over an hour per wu. I like blue too so might suck it up and leave my 4 core dedicated to cep2. I just let it connect while I'm sleeping to upload. So who got a new cruncher from Santa!

Actually that was with 7 CEP2 units running. Then I lowered my settings to use 4 treads and this morning they are: 8:04:18 CPU time 8:16:13 Wall Clock time Down to ~12 minutes. None were higher than 20 minutes, all in the teens. So I'm thinking hyper-threading may have something to play in this. Just run 4 units if you only have 4 actual cores...  |

Did you shut off hyperthreading or just reduce the number of cores to use? Am using my 4 core harpertown (E5472 -no hyperthreading) to crunch cep2. I tried cep2 on my westmere system (Dual quad E5640 w/hyperthreading) but my differences were way to large to do. I have better results with the harpertowns. Am wondering by reducing the cores allowed to crunch but have all cores active (on a 8 core system, crunch 6 or 7) if this would help.

Went ahead and reduces 2 on my westmere and 1 on my 8 core harpertown to see how that goes.

Well that didn't help much.
----------------------------------------Everyone ready for the rain, sleet and snow coming in? Could get interesting. Finished yesterday removing ice dams on the house. What a PITA.

Well that didn't help much. Everyone ready for the rain, sleet and snow coming in? Could get interesting. Finished yesterday removing ice dams on the house. What a PITA. The warm weather really allowed me to get all of the ice dams of of my house also. I had to go into work last night about 11:00 PM and came home around 1:00 AM Boy, what a difference. It was 32F(0C) when I went in and 17F( -9C) when I came home. Every street which was wet earlier became ice glazed on the way home. I don't think I drove any faster than 25 mph (40 kph) on the way home. No snow yet though. We had about 8/10 of an inch of rain yesterday(about 2cm). Now waiting to see what round two brings later today. I had the first glitch on the Proliant server. It is not connected to the internet except for about every third or fourth day. I went to go download it and found it had errored out on about 25 jobs. All of them except one were listed as zero time. It had done the first several jobs OK. I restarted it and it downloaded another 4 days worth of jobs. Now this morning it appears to be fine for the last 24 hours. Running Linux Mint 7.1. Hopefully it will not hiccup again. Cheers
