Hey everyone, I've been slacking this week I'm afraid! :o I've used the change over to linux as an excuse to run a CPDN and rosetta on my i7 for sneaky boost on that ;)

But I am getting there with linux (I say that having just started again from a fresh install :rolleyes:). I don't hate it quite as much as I used to, I have accepted the fact that it is easier to do most things in the terminal which certainly helps.

It does make me appreciate how good windows really is though. *hugs Bill*

I still need to solve a few issues before I can complete the move and really start folding again. But hopefully will be able to get a lot sorted this weekend.
 
:< pc been running a little hot lately so i had to stop for a bit but after i get my bills paid for i will treat myself to a new rig (curse u bills and car tax)
 
Ta for the news dekez, windows is easier for day to day but you cant beat a linux install for not self distructing and generally doing servery type tasks. Debating switching my server over at some point.
 
Thanks for the news dekez :)

Trying to find the time to switch gemini over to linux as well.

On a side note, just noticed I slid into the top 200 globally for total credit and currently hovering at 75 for RAC :eek: :D
 
Thanks for the news Dekez:)

Also going for ubuntu ,installing server now will add a desktop when complete.
 
Ubuntu finally installed and initial frame times are in the 6.50mins area but ive not tried NUMA selections on the motherboard as yet.

This is 3.08mins faster than ever i did in windows:D

For ref the 2684 i ran on windows A5 was slightly slower if anything than the A3 core.

If this is stable then 350k ppd from Hydra is on the cards:eek::eek::eek:

Only trouble i seem to be having is sharing between windows and ubuntu using samba, working on this now.
 
Hydra is looking awesome :) 350K! :eek:

Are you using the system-config-samba gui? I found it much easier than editing the smb.conf.
 
Sorted the share by using the gui:)

Might be more to come from Hydra i think NUMA or lack of is holding me back:D

Time per frame now below 6.45:p
 
I've had a look at my TPF for bigadv over a some of the points, it seems to be fairly consistent around 24:07/24:08, there are variations but I assume these are times when some process kicks in on the server?

Never really looked at this sort of stuff before so not sure how consistent it should be. I really should have looked at this before in windows to give myself something to compare to! At the moment the server is also running PS3 media server, one virtual machine, sabnzb+ and file sharing.

Had a hard drive failure (Was running on a VRaptor which is the second one thats failed on me!) so PPD has been virtually nil! Taking this opportunity to change back to my SSD and finish the watercooling build. Is leak testing, and fingers crossed will be transplanted tomorrow!
 
Magman 21 hrs
Sir-les 1.9 days
Dekez 4.1 days

With Hydra back up and running its stomping time:D
 
Argh, and your 24 hr average hasn't even caught up yet! I can't stop the inevitable but I might be able to make you wait a little longer :p
 
Nice tiffy dekez:)

Has anyone picked up a 2685 bigadv on linux yet?

Ive just got one and they seem a little slower than the 6901's:(
