Quietly, he sneaks into the room, looks around at all the familiar faces and loudly blurts out ?Thanks HB!!!?

What is most of the team doing at the end of classic SETI?
As of now, I?m planning on crunching until they will not take my results anymore.
Should I download BOINC now to avoid the rush?

Good Morning "Short Timers"! :sun:

13 days to go. Keep crunching, don't look behind you. Focus on the "finish line".

Curt, Crazee and I (TeAm Enterprise) are going to concentrate on BOINC - Rosetta. There will still be some participation in Seti and maybe a few other BOINC projects. We are also running DIMES.

Before long, we will all be "old timers" talking about the early days of Seti@Home.

Thanks for the morning coffee, Hellburner.

Thanks HB!

I am planning on staying with Classic until the end. But the lack of recent support for Classic is not helping. After Classic ends I think I am moving over to Rosetta.

Well, a quick look indicates there's been 50k new BOINC-users, thereof 40k SETI@Home/BOINC and seti-users has 60k new hosts, after the "classic"-shutdown was announced.

So, if half of the remaining "classic"-users switches to a BOINC-project, and many of the FaD-users switches to Rosetta, there can be 100k users that needs to download the BOINC-client, 80k of these SETI@Home/BOINC, and this means 120k new hosts needing to download SETI@Home-application.

Windows-client is 10.55MB, SETI@Home-application 3.2MB.
Also, since 1st. part is shared by rest of SSL, can't expect can use the full 100Mbit Cogent-link, so let's say bandwith max-out at 90Mbit.
A quick estimate also indicates SETI@Home/BOINC is currently using 30Mbit on work-downloads.

Doing the math, it will take minimum 57.1h to download neccessary data for 80k new seti-users with 120k hosts, and 20k new BOINC-users in other BOINC-projects.

Of course, if there's more than 100k users, or more than 1.5 computer/user, or all new seti-users tries to grab 10-days worth of work, it can take significantly longer than 57h...


So yes, will recommend everyone that is planning to run a BOINC-project, to download the BOINC-client now rather than later.

Well, they've fixed the stats-scripts in "classic" once again, and according to the status-page the data-server is now "up and running" again...
