Has any one got real, not projected times for Very low Angle range units, either here or on Seti.

...

Can I ask, how and where do I get that information? I don't have any additional programs installed. Would it be a good idea to get one of those, and in case which?

I am sure there will be a full week of "blood letting!" to an extent people have forgotten the orignal 10 times claim and are not happy with the 2-4 times depending on AR and Computer type...

For completed results, the angle range is reported in the "stderr out" message on the Result page, the first item in a 'statistics' line, preceding the FFT, Gaussian, pulse, and triplet counts. (For some reason mine are usually repeated several—or even many—times.) For WUs still on your system, open the file with a text editor and look for the "true angle range" tag, maybe thirty lines from the top. I don't know what the 'official' definition of a VLAR is, but if there's a zero immediately after the decimal point (as in "ar=0.054321") it probably qualifies. Values between about 0.3 and 0.6 are typical; VHARs likely start somewhere over 1.0.

I use BoincLogX, when the task is crunching opening BoncLogX will display info including the ar. After the unit has finished a right lick on icon and selecting history will display all tasks crunched with most recent at top. Bjoern's home page is at http://www.bjoernhenke.de/index_e.htm.
It also creates csv files with tons of info in them these can be opened in spreadsheet s/ware.

Have you noticed how this are in majority people who have large amounts of credits and a huge RAC? That they try to throw it on the "slow computer" tactic? (Why don't they just say they are a credit whore? ;))

We've been warning for over 6 months that Enhanced would be slower than the current app. Now that Enhanced is here, what's the main complaint?

And then all those that compare an ultra optimized application's credits with those of the standard Enhanced.

Oh well, at least Boinc 5.4.9 is now released. The first complaints are there already, as it's not compatible with Truxoft. So those using that are dumping 5.4.9 to go back to 5.2.13 (:rolleyes:)

Don't think thats going to do much good, last I saw was we have 3 servers now splitting enhanced work so assume by end next week most of splitters, if not all, will have be doing enhanced and the Trux's client will do nothing.

Not positive on this but some have mentioned crunch3r also makes a calibrating client. If trux doesn't do it maybe crunch3r will update his if he has one. Just was checking crunc3r's site and can't find any mention of calibrating clients so guess some people over at seti main are confused as to who's client they are using.

...

I'm not in any team, so I have little day-to-day contact with Mac crunchers. Maybe we should contact Mac team leaders and have them pass on the call for volunteers?

Nice avatar of Kai of the series Lexx there, Ody. :)

Andy, as we agreed on, I've sent the result of the VLAR I had over at Seti main to Pappa. He can forward it to you as soon you want it. :-)
The AR is 0.008011, so I guess it's pretty low. ;-)

Andy, I have a VHAR over at Seti at the moment, AR = 4.746,

Do you want me to post it here or shall I save the result and send it to Pappa, just as before with the VLAR?

So, unless Pappa can use them, just file and forget.

I can’t beat that...

Ok, it has just finished after 2 hours and 10 minutes, so I'll forget it and move on to the next.

Thanks. :-)
