I managed to get the rest of my Quads producing yesterday (actually early this morning for the last one) so its time to start issuing Parps to those above me.

I'm not quite sure who will be first on the list, as its likely to be a coin toss between hornytoe and Steevo38. Should be in the next 5-6 days though.

After that, look out for my headlights. I've not got all of my systems up to full speed yet, phase 1 was just getting them working. phase 2 will be overclocking them (the quads are all running at stock at present) and optimising the number of SMP clients they should run, phase 3 will be getting them to boot using LTSP, that will include adding a new Dual Opteron 265 server to my crunchers as well. Other projects ongoing include upgrading my Dual Opteron 242 to 265's, overclocking my HTPC (Core2 6300) and a clear out all of my recently upgraded systems

This should see me well into the 20k PPD area of production, which should allow us to see off Playstation.com as well as leaving 2ch@PS3 catching us much slower than at present. :D:D
 
Seems hardly worth folding on mine looking at some peoples output these days(!)

Hey, don't say that. It is a team after all and a third of our output comes from members who aren't in the top 20. Also, a lot of the big crunchers in our team started as single system users.

Every contribution is gratefully received. :D
 
Yeah, I jest. It costs me next to nothing to leave my iMac running 24/7 so why not?

It does me a favour not being one of the hotshots - I'd be more inclined to spend money on upgrades if I was fighting to keep inside the top 20! As it stands I'm content with plodding along with my current hardware. :)
 
Parp duly noted! :eek:

Nice folding Sah....:cool:

I am only allowed two pc's these days, so no higher output from me until one of the quads needs upgrading. ;)

Fold on Team 10.............................

Well done.
I'm getting back to that stage myself and a month ago I was in the top five. Two quads will be the requirement soon. How fast things change. :(

I was actually going to get a quad myself but decided to pay off debts first. Whether I'll get that before I retire (yeah, I have a target in mind), I don't know.

Must admit, if I wasn't lucky enough to be able to afford the kit I have, I would probably have given up by now.

Also get tempted to turn machines "not on" whenever the leccie bill arrives!
 
It looks like the deed is now finally done, though one of my quads has been down for almost a week (and still isn't behaving since I updated the VMWare software).

Ah well, I'll get my production up slowly over the next few weeks hopefully.
 
Nice STOMP!!!!

Just waiting for KE1HA to drop me to cell 12 for a while before I follow you up the ladder. :D

Hope to get to the big 2mil by the new year.:eek:

Then there may be a revaluation of project, who knows....

Fold on team 10!
