Has anyone tried disabling TCP fix after relocation of servers?

Yes... I disabled the TCP fix after the relocation of the servers.

Downloads are now extremely fast, so maybe there is no need for this "fix".

Running Win7 on all computers.

As Richard Haselgrove said:

"And to repeat, yet again - this thread is not about speed, it's simply about reliability. The idea is to get your downloads with no http errors, no backoffs."

And as I say:

So far, so good.

But...

Let's see what happens Tuesday!

I just wanted to point out that the download site does not mention Win8.....I tried it on my Win8 computer and it does not work there.

According to Speedguide.net Forums (TCP Optimizer): It doesn't yet work for Win8 :(

WOW!!! IT WORKS!!!

6-7 KBPS with no hang-ups.

Sometimes starts slower, then speeds-ups.

Better than starting at 15+ KBPS, slowing down, then stopping.

Hope it lasts.
7) Message boards : Number crunching : Errors with new GTX 560's (Message 1342866)
Posted 80 days ago by Profile CLYDE


Beyond these attempts at isolation, would be examining the possibility of adding a little GPU voltage (eVGA precision-X allows this, maybe msi afterburner, not sure), just to see if it comes good or better. It wouldn't be the first time some GPUs have surfaced with insufficient default voltage. That's often a side effect of AIB partner's parts binning process allowing for gaming cards to accept some artefacts.

Worked for me.

Installed a GTX650 after my 550TI died.

Many problems until I upped my voltage with the eVGA Precision-X Utility noted above, to 1.11V from 1.10V (just a tweak).

Works like a charm (so far).
8) Message boards : Number crunching : Remote Desktop disables GPU's (Message 1339324)
Posted 94 days ago by Profile CLYDE

Microsoft switches to a generic, non-CUDA, driver when remote desktop is invoked. The solution is to use another - any other - remote desktop utility instead. People speak highly of VNC - free versions are available.


In fact, this is what I am using (I have been using all sorts of the VNC family solutions).
I however find that VNC is slower than RD, at least in my network situation.
And, worst of all, FireFox does not work with VNC protocols any more. You end up with a static unresponsive window (for FF only, control of the rest of the remote PC is OK). This is not a problem of VNC, but of FF. Nevertheless, it is a problem.
Therefore, I must use Opera, which is however still not my main browser (problem when you follow links from other programs remotely).

I only very seldom use TeamViewer, which works great, in order not to breach their private use licence.

Quite a complicated issue to tackle for me. Not that I have not find a way, but I feel it is not the best I would like to get.

Sleepy

TightVNC is free for both personal and commercial usage.

Nice avater :P

To BlueTooth76 & AERO

Too bad you guys already use the 'WOW' avater.

Looks GREAT! :D

That`s it, I`m done.....going to dump all the wu`s and go to the other project. I thought Seti finally got their crap together, but apparently I was wrong!!!! Goodbye Seti

Hello crunchers,

look and this:

Of course the price is hefty, but we have the right to dream...

Rich dreams - poor wallet :(
12) Message boards : News : Servers are back on line after Monday's outage (Message 1329532)
Posted 123 days ago by Profile CLYDE
It seems that the Seti Project is dying.

The bandwith cap to 100Mb is probably the first step.

I havn't recieved any new WU´s to process.

If this will continue for much longer i will
delete my SETI account on all my computers.




To Al Copone: OK

Hey guys/gals - CALM DOWN!!!

This Project is about the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI). NOT Credit Totals nor 'Bragging Rights'.

How about letting the servers & network sort themselves out.

Repeatedly hitting the Update Button probably makes the situation worse! (I should probably follow my own advice)

UPDATE: the outage scheduled for the weekend of the 4th-6th has been cancelled so normal operations shall continue. We still plan to have our air conditioner repaired and will be completely off line from January 14th to January 15th during that time.

For those who havn't started at the beginning of this thread

Thank You Matt

THANKS TOM

Ya know.........the kitties really don't care anymore.
They have given this poject EVERYTHING for many years now.


Yes, it pisses me off when things turn to sh/t.
I want my caches back.

It really does piss me off right now.. But, when the smoke clears, as it always does sooner or later.

You know who the first one back on track is?

Me.

Me. So, nobody best be calling me any names at this point.



Yes, it can be frustrating at times. But...

This is the only real attempt to find Intelligent Life, not just life, somewhere beyond this planet.

Despite the problems: Let's just 'Keep On Going'.

Had an issue with machine xxx2836 :( .. i apologize to all the wing persons this effected .. machine should be up and stable again as i will continue to monitor it

Don't worry. Everyone has experienced problems. Sometimes you believe it's fixed, but it's not.

Just take your time!
18) Message boards : Number crunching : Faster GPUs with Nvidia 310.70? (Message 1315815)
Posted 158 days ago by Profile CLYDE
Has anyone noticed that the Cuda _x41g tasks are processing faster under Nvidia beta driver 310.70 or is it just me? I have even increased my tasks per GPU for both the 1 x GTX660SC @ 2Gb and 1 x GTX460SE @ 1Gb from 2 to 3. Processing went from an average of 19-22 min to 15- 20 min. Temps for the GTX660SC remain below 67c & the GTX460SE below 57c.

SAME HERE for beta 310.70 - Just running Seti on Card

Running GTX550Ti (Know it's not the best, but was affordable)

Will monitor for any problems.

我从小时就比较关注外星文明。
一直以为,宇宙是一连串巨大的、循环的套环。从黑洞开始,从黑洞结束。
至于UFO之类的不明飞行物,我一直也以为,不过是外星生物探测宇宙的工具而已,正如我们用手机,可以听到远隔万里之外的声音一样。今天我们都会用无人探测器去探索火星,那么,一个外星文明相当发达的世界,要来地球探寻或寻找什么东西的话,会冒着生命危险亲自驾驶飞船来地球么?所以,我认为,UFO,真正的UFO,绝对不会出现有生命在里面。

我们使用的机器不是人类因开支和危险。如果先进的外国人解决了此问题。然后他们可以旅行的星星之间。

任何坏的翻译很抱歉。我使用 bing 翻译。
