LHC@home

I don't want to nag anyone from LHC, but last week, we got more info from you guys when there was no work ...
first bunch of new work is done... now what?

sincerely,

sysfried

Who say's it's done yet ... ??? ... ;)

> Who say's it's done yet ... ??? ... ;)

I think "he" (sysfriend) say this :-)
i still have 20 Units on my AMD64, and some on the other...
if every run 2 hours, i have about 40hour CPU-time :-)

Patience please.

I still have about 30 of them across all my machines.

I'm getting through them as fast as I can.

With the resource share and cache levels I had set up on my machine it took to this morning to get rid of all other work for the projects (using the allow no new work button) so at 4.5hrs per wu per cpu on my HT machine, I should get through the cache in about 48hrs. Then I will be done!

Live long and crunch!

Are we moving forward slowly because................ From Chrulle a few days ago while we were in delay from a june 1 start.........Well, once again we are stumped.

On the XP sp1 and XP sp2 and 2000 sp 4. The results we get back are strange. The numerical value of the results are the same, but while we on other platforms the representation of 0 is 15 digits and a E on the afore mentioned platforms we get 16 digits and a e. This is not really a problem because the value is the same just the representation is different. So we simply have to change our post processing checks to actually parse the results instead of just running diff.

We are worried though, because we do not understand why this is happening, and although we have not seen it affecting any of the real numbers yet it might still happen. We are doing static linking so there should be no reason for this to happen.

This frightens me because noone has come forward to say this issue is resolved. Are we still in a test phase hence the vaunted million workunits so slow in coming?

I still have two to finish up ...

But don't have any more other than those two ...

---

I got some about an hr ago....hurry, hurry, hurry. Wish the number on the front page would work.

I got a big load of work as well! :-)

seems kinda random right now ... I was down to only one this morning... now I am up with about 15 ...

Better than nothing ...

---

I've been unable to get new work for the last 4hrs....2nd load complete? Lucky my cache is full...hehehe.

Ditto....

But I'm happy for the moment.. ;-)

I'm running out of work again...

:-/

---

I seem to be down to only one in progress. Ah well ...

---

Now that I can get away from S@H for a bit, I am again working through my backlog of LHC work.

Am down to 15. I started with 30 about 4 days ago.

I should have these few finished by early next week or sooner....

---

I am done with all of mine. THough I looked at my account last night and it seems I got hit with the phantom WU generator to the tune of a hundred or so Work Units, and this is somewhat surprising as I have machines running versions from 4.25 to 4.44 ...

Ah well ...

---

I waited to the last minute (1 wu left) before re-allowing new work on the other projects. This poor last wu will sit preempted for a while. Looking forward to the next lot being released.

Looks like they're gone already. Guess I was faster then I thought.... ;)

We all are ...

Though I need to buy another computer ... only doing about 2300 Cobblestones a day ... I gotta do better than this! :)

I just hope the next study comes out soon ... though I have not figured out what the graphics is really showing it is one of the better ones (when i look at them ...) I mean, it looks like 20-30 particles milling about in a cloud ... not racking around the track, nor, for that matter looking like a cross-section ...

Ah, well, if I knew anything, I should start writing it down ...

==========
The main reason you are only doing about 2300 a day is because the LHC Project gives out less credit than some of the other Projects do for the same amount of crunching time ...

I'm the same way, I can only get between 2300 to 2400 a day here at LHC but at Einstein or CPND and some of the other Projects I can get between 3500 - 4000 a day ...
