It could be because of how many machines we have per member here. I have 5 machines working for me at home right now

Yeah, I've devoted pretty much my entire CPU resources on this project. 42 threads so far.

I've had both my machines on correlizer for a while now. Now that temps outside are down they'll be running 24/7.

Until my old pre-upgrade PC finishes selling on ebay I have two quads I've thrown into the mix. Haven't crunched anything in an age.

It's a race!

The jig is up, they're onto us.

From here on out, make sure you use your secret decoder ring to determine what the smilies mean. Google translate ignores smilies so we can continue working on our strategy and tactics without anyone finding out what we're doing.

:sneaky: :thumbsup: (there decode that)

Hook, line & sinker!

Remember, our competitors are the SETI.Germany. Organized, tactical, strategic and they have many, many members. Many of them speak several languages ... and quite a few live in the northern Americas ...
So here is the message:

Got it?

Lost some time and a few WUs, lost power here for like 30 mins.

What's wierd is, the machine that was not on a UPS, didn't show any units that said "computational error", but the two machines on the UPS did.

Funny you should mention the secret weapon, since I work at a "jeep" dealership.

Ok, 1055t is switched over. I need to clear out some seti WU's on both of my big boxes, however, so it might be a few days before I really get it going.

Good news, mom is making me lunch today so I can switch over her Q6600 rig to Correlizer as well.

Too bad I can't share some of mine with you.

Welcome to the race Sunny129!
Welcome and many thanks to Sunny129 and BryanW1995!
glad to help out my fellow TeAm crunchers


Correlizer has two main WU types---BioMedical Genome Correlations and Correlizer Beta Applications.

On my 1100T the difference in production time is about 3 minutes---14:30 vs 11:30.

To get the Beta WUs:

Go to your account on Correlizer
Select Correlizer preferences
Select Edit preferences
Check only the Beta applications
Check accept work from other applications

This will ensure that you get the faster WUs. But if none are available, you will still get work.
Rudy, is your 1100T overclocked? if so, to what frequency? a "BioMedical Genome Correlations" task is taking just over 16:00 my 1090T, which is OCed to 3.7GHz.

also, have you fetched any of the less common "Correlizer Embedded Applications" tasks yet?

Rigs are going to be offline for a bit as I make a few updgrades.
PII X2 555BE is getting moved in favor of a 1055T. The PII X2 which has all 4 cores unlocked will be bumping an old 4200+ offline as I only have one spare power source.

Now I just need to be patient and let the current 4 correlizer threads finish in the next 5 minutes before I do anything.

I asked this in Rudy's thread also but which Linux distro should I use? It seems like switching from Win XP x86 to Linux x64 would help me crunch better

I just checked out my tasks on my 1055t, I have 3 seti@home WU's and 3 correlizer WU's going at the same time. The correlizer WU's aren't showing a status update, they just show a runtime of 17:30, 8:32, and 0:53 with 0% completed. Just checked out the event log, and it has completed several tasks. Does Correlizer just not report the % complete on each WU?

edit: also, does correlizer use the gpu?

The genome app 1.00 does not show progress, or checkpoint, iirc, while the beta app does.
no gpu usage at this time, but hints on the site show that they may in the future.

does this mean that suspending a genome task (or the entire project for that matter) mid-crunch will cause them to start all over again, even though the progress bar doesn't show anything? in other words, if a genome task typically takes my CPU ~16 min, and i suspend it 1 minute after it starts, and then resume, will it run for a total of 17 minutes b/c the task didn't checkpoint and had to start over?

i suppose i could just wait 15-20 minutes to see what the tasks do, but i'm too impatient .

Suspending the regular app will cause an error/invalididate the WU when it starts back up. I would lose 4 partially completed wu's each time I shutdown at night. This is one of the things they fixed in the beta apps. I'm surprised that 1.07 beta hasnt been pushed into production yet, as all the kinks have been worked out.

EDIT: looks like the error on suspension and reboots was not affecting everyone.

I did get errors when restarting. If I shut down BOINC first before restarting, I didn't get those errors

For some reason it's continuing to crunch 3 x seti and 3 x correlizer for now... it might take a few days to clean those old seti wu's out.
