It's getting a tad toasty in here today.
I already had 2 rigs shut down to ask me to remove their cooling fans and remove the kitty fur buildup.

hi there
my english is not good enough to explain my idea, so it's better to write it in german.
Das Credit-system kennt keine Prozessorerweiterungen wie SSE... oder AVX
Dem Creditsystem ist nicht bekannt, dass Computer mit solchen Erweiterungen schneller, und effizienter rechnen, wenn die Anwendungen sie unterstützen.
Mussten mit einem alten Prozessor zwei Berechnungen durchgeführt werden, geht das heute mit aktuellen CPUs mit einer. <
Dann noch der Unterschied 32 vs. 64 bit....
Es werden Esel mit Rennpferden verglichen
Es ist eine 'Normalisierung' nötig, die den den Geschwindigkeitsvorteil der Prozessorerweiterungen beschreibt, und die Rechenleistung entsprechend anpasst.

Wie viele flops würde die Berechnung einer WU benötigen, wenn die CPU keine 'modernen' Erweiterungen hat, und wie viele mit Erweiterungen?
Wenn das berücksichtigt wird, passen die Credits auch wieder, und alle sind glücklich!

Das creditsystem hat die Prozessorentwicklung verschlafen, und berücksichtigt sie nicht.
oder seh ich das falsch

Abgesehen davon kotzt mich die Arroganz der Verantworlichen an!
SETI@Home wäre nichts ohne seine Teilnehmer. Respekt, wurde ja schon mehrfach angesprochen, der fehlt. Seti sollte sich nicht als Gönner hinstellen, dem die User für die Arbeit danken müssen. Seti kann ohne User nix, gar nix, man sollte dort mal überlegen, wie weit man ohne die Beteiligung wäre, oder was für ein Rechenzentrum sie haben müssten um die Arbeit selbst zu erledigen.

maybe anyone translates this

It always strikes me as kind of annoying when folks can not be bothered to string a few words into a sentence and simply post "+1". Is it laziness or an educational issue ?

+1

Im sure there is a project that will kiss your butt with sweet credit.

This is not language suitable for a moderator.

It can be acceptable (barely, and depending on the occasion) in a flaming discussion, which this is largely not (we are just debating what is happening), by a normal poster.

Not by a moderator.
Who, by etymology, should make sure spirits do not go too high. What you wrote goes in total opposite direction.

And no, I am not pushing the red-X.

But I want this not to be forgotten too quickly.

And I am not going anywhere. I stand here, as many others do.

Sleepy

No I speak for myself. And If you have a problem with my reposne, hit that red X and report me.

I would only ever red-X one of my own posts.

You're right seti@home has lively discussions second to none.
CreditNew is Boinc specific.
Many Setizens were with seti@home before Boinc was a twinkle in Dr Anderson's eyes.
If Dr. A. wants to use seti@home as the testbed for evolving Boinc a bit of proactive PR would go a long way.
As it stands now his approach is, to say the least, arrogant and condescending.

My RAC has plunged 25%, from 139K to 104K, in less than a week and it is still dropping . . . and with that observation I say "goodbye" to SETI crunching and munching.

Good luck to all of you and solong!

Before 430K, now 333K and sinking... but i will remain crunching until the last beer!

I have been crunching sine 1999 have a rac of 35,000 and a credit of 25 million and that is with one cruncher so I crunch I use my 4 tons of ac to my domicle cool. So it is possible to crunch in the summer time I do not sacriface my laundry or cooking or watching tv in the summer so not my cruncher either.

I guess all of my appliances are more energy efficient than yours...My cruncher gives off way more heat than my t.v.'s, etc, etc.

Than you CLYDE
Post me screenshot, please

For all testers - I need few screenshots, strongly need in case bag

1) All the Stock v7 GPU apps are Lunatics apps now!

now everybody runs optimized apps, and the credit calculation still based on the old standard 'SETI@home Enhanced' app runtimes / performance.
credits/h go down 75%
lol, im not sure to waste more energy and money with this project. plan was to reach 10,000,000. credits, but not with this conditions.

What is the point in reaching 10 million credits? Do you expect to get a free car then?
Why not just doing it for the sake of science (like most people here do)?

Congrats guys i'll join you all in August keep crunching

Has anyone tried disabling TCP fix after relocation of servers?
