Hardly any. Its all just pings and traceroutes. Its certainly nothing I notice compared to Majestic 12 where I am shifting about 400GB a day atm

A team stomp is on the cards in DPAD in about a fortnight, it will be worth around 150 points which will help 
Dimes uses naff all bandwidth but seems to be a pain to get working reliably for me.

I'm not sure what is going on with the PSP position. According to vault stats we have been overtaken by free-dc but they have been inactive for ages 
Looks like we woke them up.
Looks like we took a hit in PSP.
How hard is it to get running on a GPU ? Its my birthday tomorrow and my present will need "testing"
Well happy birthday for tomorrow
PSP is CPU only I'm afraid.
I have a question for you Phil, did you have to do anything special to get RC5-72 working on your 7970s? I've tried on mine and the client shuts down after a couple of secs with a 'core compilation failed' error. I'm using 'dnetc-win32-x86-stream' client, it says something about having to install stream drivers but they seem to be for older cards, I installed them anyway but I get the same error.

You need the OpenCl client dnetc520-win32-x86-opencl
Thanks mate, now though I'm getting a windows message 'distributed client.net has stopped working' as soon as it starts. I'll have a play, see if I can figure it out.
... I still can't get it to work on the 7970 machine, but I tried it on the 2 x 7950s machine and got over 4 billion keys/sec on stock and over 5 billion OC'ed but my cards didn't like the CPU running, even a couple of cores killed my output, so I'll give it a go some other time, I need the CPU cores ATM.
... I updated the ATi drivers on the 7970 it's now working getting over 3 billion keys/sec on it.

Welcome to DPAD
Switched over a few cores to this as it looks like we could gain a place with little effort.
Still not sure what to do for GPU processing, not that the weather is all that encouraging on that front. Barely break 40Degrees but it sure does warm up my already hot house.

Sounds about right. If i run anything on the CPU, even just one core, then the output drops significantly.

Looks like the stomp will be today.

Just one more update should do it
What does anyone think to the idea of a 'project push' where we all hit one particular project for one whole month? it doesn't have to be every month.
The DPC do this with their 'stampede'. I'm just trying to think of ways for us to break into that illusive top 10.

I'm going to take a break from DPAD when I have reached 120 mil, in just under a month and I'll be up for crunching other things then.
Phil, how do you get high numbers with Dimes? do you just have a lot of machines running?
