Geoffs, Take notice Lief's tone before and after your post. Pretty funny.

This brings back the spirit of last year when we were trying to get to #1. Good

Im half dutch by the way and can read dutch so if you need a spy ...

I'm completely Dutch, but am proud to be a member of TA.

Oh, TA is not big ol' mighty america, as you said. We have members from all over the world, including the Americas, Europe, Asia, Middle East, Russia and I believe there are one or two from Africa. So we are a truly multi-national, worldwide team.

The DPC, btw, do not only have Dutch on their team. Since they can not grow much more here in The Neherlands, they are now also (and always have been) accepting members from other European countries, eg Belgium, UK, Scandinavian countries.

Ik kan niet echt goed nederlands schrijven maar ik hoop dat jij dit wel verstaat .

Hehe. I didnt know there were many european guys... I thought I was the of the few.

I can read 4 languages, Finnish, Swedish, English and dutch and understand moderately the for example german or other relative languages, for which Im quite proud of .

What size packet are you trying to stomp them down into ?

As I'm sure most of the D²OL regulars know, I have two PC's, a P3 800 and an Athlon XP 1900+
I had put the Athlon on Climate Prediction, and I've been communicating with carl (from the CP core team) most of today (Saturday) trying to fix an uploading problem, which carl eventually managed to sort out. cool: not often you find a member of a project who is willing to work most of Saturday trying to fix a problem )
But, for what it's worth, the Athlon ( node 455) is now back on D²OL and is trying to stay in the top 10 nodes

You can stick your finger in, but you won't stop the flood

What priority does the client run at?

I tried to run it together with SOB, but now it takes all the CPU time.

I want clients to run at idle priority (whishful thinking)..

Anyone ?

According to Task manager, GridWin ; Low,
DockWin ; Low
Search the D²OL forums for idle priority

Smell the SIZZLE
Oh I love BeefBurgers :beer:
Don't think it can be done, after each task D²OL resets it's priority

 

[RemyCanad]

Any chance of a service client?

Lets not stir up the wasps nest before we get caught up to them Cows too much. They have too many peeps wid nothin to do but put more machines on any given project. Lets sneak up on them and float like a butterfly, STING like a bee.

I dont nkow if this helps but you can set the priority in the task manager at least in XP. Just go to the ?Processes? ( no sure cos I have a finnish XP) and the right click and priority.

I have this thread in the FS/T forum Link . I need some CPU`s for this thing it is the only items it lacks. I think it will work but I am not 100% shure about it. Anyone have one?

As far as I remember, when D²OL starts on a new candidate the priority gets reset to what it was.

Kicking some cow butt are we eah?

Good luck.

I'll get my 1800+ on it in a week or two... not much, but it's what I got. I'll also ask Justbeez to bump it up a bit.

Kk

I got a P2-400 and a P4-1.4G crunching away...

Great going TeAm! Slapstick _Shame really put the whammy to them today too!

 

[Slapstick]

We were rather fortunate today, several people were on vacation last week at work and Shame and I managed to use their PC?s for the week. I wish we could manage that kind of production everyday but I guess we will settle for every now and then.

On a side note, the new client?s ability to queue up 2000 candidates really comes in handy when you have to run the pc?s offline, on the P4 2.2?s we have at work that?s about 2 weeks worth of production before needing to dump. It seems most of the problems that plagued this project have been corrected, the clients stable, (haven?t had a stuck candidate in a few months), the ability to grab 2000 work units, even better is the ability to flush out the cache just in case you get bad work units and project directors that actually leave relevant messages on their forums to keep people informed as to problems and resolutions, they actually seem to care. So if any of the old crew is thinking about coming back but are worried about the problems of the past I suggest you give it try again because all in all it?s not your mother?s D2Ol anymore!

Slapstick and I Borg'd a few machines recently. Today wasn't half bad.

Right now we are down 300 for the day. Considering we were up against a big Drunken Pregnant Chick dump, we didn't do too bad. Thanks TeAm.
