So for example, if someone cared about the RAC (which I do not), they would if indeed taking longer, benefit from running AP_5 to get a higher RAC as credits granted are higher than Enhanced with an optimized app?

I run r112 which on my rig (core2duo 2.13gHz) and it takes about 40 hours to process an ap_v5 5.03 workunit, however credit is near 1216 per unit. Overall RAC would increase a lot over time given the extra credits? Correct me someone if I have misunderstood.

I run milkyway as a spare project when seti is having issues - is there a list of supported cards as Id like to run MW@H on my ati and seti on my CPU???
I only have a X550 though, but it all helps..

So once again, I'm going to commit myself to trying to improve communication between the project staff and the volunteers. And this time I mean it. A posting a week, at least. I'll even try to keep some of them interesting, although as usual I won't promise to stick to SETI@home, Astronomy, or even life in the universe. Matt does a pretty good job of explaining the day to day challenges we face, so I'll spend time discussing broader topics.

Catch you next week.

Hi everyone :)

I am crunching SETI primarily. Recently I started using CUDA client on my laptop, so I decided to use the CPU for ABC@home.

I tried to login to ABC with my SETI account, but could not. Then I registered a new account with the same email and username as my SETI accound.

BUT - I have two different cross-project identifiers and I suspect I have two different accounts for the total BOINC standings...

What did I do wrong?

Do you use any data substitution on server-side data cleanup (I mean, do you insert something in data array instead of removed radar pulses ? )
If yes, is it possible to mark these "blanked" areas in task header so client could know what areas are "true" ones and what contain some substituted stub data? Some list of indexes of blanked regions for example...

Link to memtest?

Yeah, I think the problem is that I felt that I needed to say something informative, educational, funny, interesting and important all at once which made blogging more difficult than it should have been.

I still may pontificate on occasion, but most postings will be shorter than that.

And here are more servers we no longer use. Those Suns at the bottom of each pile were the driving force behind SETI classic (the user database server, the science database server, and the upload/download server). We don't have the heart to just toss this into the salvage bins. Anybody wanna buy any of this stuff before we donate it to the Smithsonian?

what you need to do is set no new task wait for all task to be done then it should get the new app

I don't know, that's what I did, and reset the project as well before I allowed new tasks, but that's when I got the 6.03. That's why I decided to detach.
