nice looking machines there guys, I like the look of that dual-core P4 EE.
Would a dual Xeon 1.6GHz (overclocked to 2.8) count if I installed TMR's Science app. and Trux's boinc.exe?

This is my best one:

My dad runs dual Xeons, with an Optimized Client (Science App) and an Optimized BOINC. Trux's BOINC.exe 5.3.1.0 is what we use for BOINC itself (Make sure to use CPUZ.exe to find out which download you need, and remember to always back up your files first) and as far as the Optimized Client? Well, you have to do a little shopping around to see what is to your liking. Can't give away all the secrets.

no need to give secrets away as your dad's results "sing like a bird" ;)

let me clean out these SETI Enhanced Beta results and then we'll see what she can do

I am quite happy with this one..

To believe everything you see, will mislead you there. I know what it is your talking about and what version he is using as I, is different from what that "results page" says.

Mislead is the key word. Tenacity is the secret. I say "If you believe, let not your determination be swayed".

Besides, I have the satisfaction of knowing that I have contributed something to the world science community and that the possibility, however slim, exists that E.T. may have phoned and I might get lucky enough to push "Play" on the answering machine.

Where all think alike, no one thinks very much.

Tony (if I may call you Tony),

is there any particular reason you have turned off hyperthreading on the xeons?
it can't be because of the OS, which is supposed to support 4 logical cpu's.

[edit]
the possible "hello world" from outer space was the reason I started this as well years ago, but my attention drifted to more down-to-earth projects over the years.

Mr.Pernod, I would like to thank you for bringing an oversight to my attention. I actually had not paid attention to this slight detail and shall admonish myself accordingly. Perhaps looking at the bottle without actually opening it for 1 full minute shall suffice? In any event, I have corrected that problem on the Home Xeon and presumably, if I see no issues before Monday morning, I shall do the same with the Work Xeon.

I must mention beforehand, that if the numbers do the expected thing, my son may be quite upset because then he will have absolutely no possibility whatsoever of catching dear old dad in the family points race. C'est la guerre!

Salud!

My one and only crunching machine is listed in my computers.

After a short test (5-6 hours), it has been clearly determined that hyperthreading is bad on this machine. Time for job completion went from app 1 hr to 3+ hrs. If you extrapolate, I run 15.5 fewer jobs per day on average. (47.5 jobs non-HT vs. 32 jobs HT). 'Twas a good thought but that old machine got cranky and slowed down. Kinda like his daddy when he has to work too hard!

Thanks again, Mr.Pernod!

Sorry to hear about the hyperthreading slowdown.
Your Xeons seem to have sufficient L2 cache (512KB) so SETI must be choking on the FSB.
As I posted earlier, I have my 1.6GHz Xeons slightly overclocked, but the main overclock is the FSB in this case. Default was 400, currently they are running on FSB800 and putting in some decent crunch-times.

I switched to another optimized science application yesterday, so the time/result on AndyK's PCM are a bit skewed at the moment, but the first results the machine turned in were (roughly) in the same ballpark as a P4/3.0(non-HT) with the standard client.
I'll be running this application for a while and see how the times settles down.
