Is anybody using that configuration for crunching? I would like to now how much time is their CPU using on crunching single WU... Just to compare if it is same...

Hi,
I've got one thats turned in a few at about 6600sek/WU
Using Crunch3rs clients boinc/seti.

Hi 19T50,
Before I optimized ( thanks Crunch3r)it was taking approximately 4 hours per unit. Now, it's around 2 hours.

I used to crunch 1WU around 3hours and 15min., now with optimized client from http://www.marisan.nl/seti/ it takes about 2hrs and 20mins. So, this one from crunch3r is even faster?

Thanks for answer

same here... one out of ten is about 6600sek, but usually 8400 sek/wu...

One note 19T50---I use the "old" Crunc3r app HERE

When you get to the page, scroll down and you'll see the column with old Pentium/Athalon. Use that one--the newer version gave my machine fits.

I downladed client under "Pentium3 / AthlonXP SSE"... and on first look it is faster than I client used before because this new one continued to crunch WU and it is crunching faster... We will see shortly... :) THANK YOU

WooHoo!!!! VERY Happy Crunching! Happy New Year!

My MAD Athlon XP 2200+ (not 2500) takes about 2:30 per WU. Rembmer when before computers would ake days/weeks to finish one ?!

hahaha--oh yes, used to take me 3-4 DAYS to run a Classic unit. But then, I was running an ancient 25 Mhz Hewlett Packard. Ahhhhhhhh, technology.

Yup those days will soon come, brought by enhanced SETI. Well after a a year or two that comes out. A quad-processor will come out.

Too late ... PowerMac Quad already here ...

Oh, and Dell has a dual, dual core Xeon (only 2.8 GHz though) which with HT should give you 8 processors.

I just ordered a psu for a caseless rig I'm putting together out of spare parts. Never felt like using them (old parts) before because I was more concerned with keeping my average Classic wu time down as low as possible. I found an old Palomino core 1900+ on the back of a shelf and thought, "What the h***."

At 1600MHz / 266MHz fsb (oc'd to 1750 if I remember right)I should be seeing about two or three wu's a week out of it with the new SETI client.

Oh well, it's a geek hobby and all for science.

Merry New Year!

With this crunch3rs client 1 WU is running about 5800sec... :) thanks CRUNCH3R!


Btw... you are talking about new seti client in wich single WU would be crunched over 1-2 or maybe 3 days. What about errors? what if happens same as here now sometimes? I mean, now if boinc (seti) reports error to me on some WU it is not so bad because it has crunched it for 1-2hrs and very quickly this WU is resend to someone else... but what a waste of time it would be if seti reports problem (error) after (on example) 20-30hrs of crunching? ?! And of course, when this "new" seti will be out?

AMD is working on quad processor 64 due to come out later this new year.

Two good questions. If there're errors under the new system and crunching time is wasted it WILL suck. But it's nothing new in the world of DC. This is a trend we'll likely always see. We've been there before. My 1st SETI cruncher was a Pentium 150 (slower than a 133) and took 19 hours or so to complete a Classic wu. As computers become faster, scientists will look for ways to better utilize that potential. This will probably always mean a significant increases in computing time. Then, of course, computers will again gain ground and we'll start the whole ride over again.

Think of it as a good reason to spend money on a faster rig. After all, the kids can pay their own way to college, there's science to be done here!

When will they transition to the new SETI? Several threads have smarter folks than I speculating.

My guess- when it's ready.

I crunch at the Beta site and from what I can see the enhanced seti app is basically ready. It just needs to have the claimed credit re-calibrated to give the right amount of credit.

And they do take very long to crunch with enhanced app. I am seeing times of 32 to 33 hours to do a wu on my system. Big differance from crunch3rs app which gets done in a time of 1hr 10min to 1hr 20min.

My XP 2100+ is with no OC'ing is crunching most in 1:42 min and some as fast as 1:30 min's with crunch3r's app.
