With only 14 days return it takes most cruncers out. On my old Opteron-242 running at 1.6 GHz, it seems will clock-in on 6.3 days cpu-time, while on C2D-4400 running at 2 GHz it takes around 55 hours cpu-time. So, any Core2-duo or Core2-quad crunching atleast 25% of the time can run Astropulse, while a 1.6 GHz Opteron/Amd64 must crunch atleast 60% of the time. The faster the computer, the less time it needs to crunch to meet the deadline... "I make so many mistakes. But then just think of all the mistakes I don't make, although I might." ID: 787974 ·

You can crunch all of the Astrokitty some of the time, and some of the Astrokitty all of the time, but you just can't crunch all of the Astrokitty all of the time....LOL.

I'll stick to Seti, Way too long for Me. With your Q9300 running at 3.525 GHz, would guess you'll use around 30 hours to finish Astropulse-wu's... Hmm, it would be interesting to see, if anyone manages to use less than 24 hours on Astropulse-wu's, or if not, how long before it's possible... "I make so many mistakes.

I would think that's FP territory, Not UFP territory. ;) Maybe when theirs an Optimized Astro app, Then I'd try It. Savoir-Faire is everywhere!

I don't have one handy offhand, but the procedure and tips for setting up the app_info file was covered over on Beta back we were running Joe's experimental MB app's for 9x and AP at the same time (around 12/06-1/07, IIRC). You could probably use that one as a start and just make sure all the filenames and version numbers are updated to reflect what we have here on the main project, if you're looking to get a head start.

I crunch 100 % SETI@home.. When and where I can get the new app_info.xml ?(I'm an opt. app user :-) So how much % SETI@home Enhanced and how much % Astropulse WUs I will get? How are the credits? It's the same like with SETI@home Enhanced? When we will see opt. Astropulse apps? Which kind of WUs are Astropulse WUs? What will be crunched there? Questions and questions.. ;-D ID: 788165 ·
