Folding@Home News - Attention Single-Machine Crunchers

You can take me off now, I have 3 active CPUs.
ok if you're sure - Concorde swears all his is from the one machine still so i'll keep him (begrudgingly :p)

damn I'll have to think of a new name now - the dirty dozen won't work with only 11 of you :p
ah well - bingo calls it is then :D

edit: ahh inspiration rescued me at the last second :p

consider yourself added :)

and yep you're right about appearing on the stats page - once the first WU has been credited (usually within the hour of it finishing) then you'll appear on the main stats page and that will trickle down to the 3rd party stats within a few hours

welcome to the team :cool:

Could I go on the single crunchers list? Since coming back to university I think my parents have turned off my P4 rig so now I am sitting with my P-M 2.31ghz in my laptop now :). It doesn't do a bad job of folding considering I use it quite a bit!

Your stats page is showing 3 active clients over the last 7 days so I would guess that folding is still running on your other machine (I guess at least one of them has 2 clients using HT - I'm not an Intel man I'm afraid so wouldn't have a clue :o)

However if you feel that the vast majority of your points come from the one machine then I guess people won't mind too much if you're counted as a single cruncher. I'll add you for now anyway otherwise I'll forget completely by tomorrow :eek: :p
 
Ok I'm just about to start this week's news, the list I've got for single crunchers is...

2bullish, Bennah, Concorde_Rules, Corran, divine_madness, GT3, killer_uk, Napalm, nellystew, OcUKIsotope, pmbuzz, Rincin, RobOC, slamma06, TinkerBell

any more for any more? :)

More than I thought! They're even in alphabetical order an' all :)
you gotta have a system :p

ahhh yes the dishonoured* Concorde - hmmm not totally sure he belongs in the group although it is quite a testament to what a single dual-core (plus an old part-time Mac) can put out in a week
still I did say that it was up to people to decide themselves so I'll stick to that


* dishonoured in the being suspended sense - honourable in his foldy goodness of course


Zirax sorry if i missed you before - I'll get you on there now :)

no problem - welcome to the team and welcome to the forum also :)

you seem to have got a space in the URL for your signature just before your name

fahsig.php


or add &r=255&g=255&b=255

fahsig.php


or play around with the numbers a bit &r=255&g=0&b=0

Can take me off the single crunchers list now ;)
but you started it all! :p
c'mon don't keep us guessing - what have you managed to buy/borrow/borg?
or is that on a need to know basis until the next news? ;)

You can take me off the single cruncher list, just added a couple more machines.
oooh what ya got? :)


congrats on the new borgs guys - here's to stomping! :cool:
I've taken you both off the list ready for Friday
 
SB doesn't seem to be producing at the moment - have you only just added it?
linkage

Stelly I'll happily add you but I can't seem to find you yet - I have found a Stelly with no team number but that shows no work returned since last year so is probably just coincidence
If you have only just joined then you won't appear in the team stats until your first Work Unit has been returned and credited.
I can still add you to the list for next week if the name is definately correct

Hi there,

I will start over again and call myself StellyOCUK... is that alright?? I will set it all up tonight ;)

Stelly
there's no need to change the name - just check your team number is 10 and it'll keep the results seperate from the other Stelly

I'm assuming it's just that you haven't finished a WU yet so you're not showing up on the stats - nothing to worry about in that case :)


welcome to the team :cool:

Um, what if we're crunching with really low specs? I've got my P3 crunching and its hasnt completed a WU after about 3 days.. Also whenever this PC is on, its crunching.. But theyre both not very powerful? Otherwise i'll be stuck at the bottom of the multi system list with 2 machines equivalent to one :(
well personally I don't see that it should be a problem although it is going totally against the "single cruncher" rule - if anyone feels strongly about it then I'll have to stick with that

does this mean you didn't have any luck borging your brother's PC? :(
or am I getting confused now? :p

I'll add you for now (same name as here?) and see if anyone complains

I've done 1 WU up to yet this current one reckons 1Day 6Hours.. :eek:

Guess I'll leave it to it - is there anyway I can assign full CPU to it as I'm going out now?

I'm using the system tray version if that makes any difference?
I guess you mean that it's showing 50% max at the moment as it's an HT machine?

The only way to do it is to add another client - instructions are in the sticky
Although it's showing only 50% usage in reality it's more like 70% of the full capabilty and for some of the more advanced work you may find no real benefit at all from running two clients (infact it may even just slow everything down)

The best thing to do is give it a try and see how it gets on.


edit: wrote the post and then got distracted before sending :p
if it's not an HT machine then ignore all i've just written :D
edit2: oops almost forgot to add you to the list - i'll go do it now :)
Welcome to the team!!!
