IBX in water

I know most of us are SMP junkies now but I've seen these units on a few of my office borgs, just check task manger and they're massive memory hog's these - +240mb

50 steps and 338pts

[email protected] 2Gb = 24mins a step
[email protected] 2Gb = 18mins a step
[email protected] 2Gb = 56mins a step when in SSE2 not active

Edit:
P4 2.0 512Mb = 58mins
P4 2.0 512Mb = 118mins when in SSE2 not active!

yeah, these are real bloaters.

Pretty sure they're bigWUs though.

50h plus on a 9-5 P4's is a nearly 2 calander weeks crunching.
where as the C2d will crunch one over night (if I'm the last one to leave)
and two will give 1000ppd

Edit: just go two on one of the E6300's lucky me

AAAAARRRRRGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!

I have 2 of these and had got to about 79% on both. I decided, in my wisdom, to swap out my RAM for the faster stuff I had. When I rebooted, I got a BSOD, got it sorted (timings were a bit optimistic ) and rebooted again with no problems. Started FahMon to check progress and had a "Checksums don't match (work/wudata_01.xtc)" error and they've both started from the beginning again

These are on the 2 remaining cores on a Q6600, the other two cores being used for VMware with Ubuntu running 1 SMP client. When I started these two fellas up, my frame times for the SMP client in VMware jumped from 14.5 mins to nearly 18 mins

Getting about 21 mins per frame (that was before faster ram, may get a little quicker now).

Q6600 @ 2.7GHz
2Gb PC2 8000 RAM (Windows 1280Mb, VMware 768Mb)
P5N32-Sli.

those WU's are double gromacs. at the moment im only using a Pentium D 915 at 3.6GHz and a P4HT 3GHz at 3.25GHz, both running two console clients. when each one is a gromacs core i get about 500PPD, when all clients are double gromacs i get 800 - 1000PPD
