Hi

try following, you only need Xbranch for cuda client and older revision:

cd /home/user/temp/setiathome
svn checkout -r1921 https://setisvn.ssl.berkeley.edu/svn/branches/sah_v7_opt/Xbranch
cd Xbranch
sh ./_autosetup
sh ./configure BOINCDIR=/home/user/temp/setiathome/boinc_repo --enable-sse2 --enable-fast-math
make

Hmm, it's getting easier...

I had to add
#include <unistd.h>
to client/analyzeFuncs.h to bring in sleep() on my Mint system.

thanks, was able to build the CUDA version.
the first tasks are running at the moment :-)



the first work units are done.
But now I'm not sure if I did everything correct or if I can optimize a little more.

See this work units:
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=1395824607
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=1395824583
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=1395824581

The work units done by my computer (Computer ID 7182725) needed up to 10 times more than Computer ID 7000808 needed for the same work units.

Is it realistic, that the GeForce GTX 570 in computer 7000808 is 10 times faster than the GeForce GT 330M in my notebook?

Interestingly, the specs state that the GTX570 has exactly 10 times the number of Cuda cores. I tend to place some extra weight in the memory speed at the moment though, for which while on processing cores you would be pushed to 1/10th or below the throughput, the 570's newer architecture and faster memory clock would compensate. So seems 'about' right.

While I far from subscribe to the idea that there is no fully optimised or bug free software, I can categorically state there are still many possibilities in X-Branch.

Thx the guys on this thread, I am able to build the CUDA too.
