Seeing SetiClassic off in style!

No stashing please (except maybe for a day to suit your network connectivity needs), at this stage in the game we can't afford to run a risk of loosing WUs from any crashes. Every one counts.

No sweat, it had to be done. Since the network disconnects me overnight, that's just the number of WUs that were waiting in the queue since 20:00 EST. I'm just dumping as soon as I could. :cool:

AFAIK stashing is no problem if you have a NTFS filesystem, if you have a FAT32 filesystem a crash can lead to lost results.

At this stage in the game, I'd rather not try and put that to the test ;)

Understood, sah. i've just changed my "processing" time for SetiQueue to be from 1:00am to 3:00 over to 3:01am to 3:00am. That should give it plenty of time to get all those WUs submitted becasue the disconnect happens around 2:30 every day. :cool:

v3.08 - v3.03 Comparison

All -

Somewhere along in this thread or similar thread, somebody said v3.03 was allot faster than 3.08 ... well I can certainly confirm that, at least on my laptop PM 1.4Ghz

v3.08 AVE = 3.25hrs per WU

v3.03 AVE = 2.4hrs per WU

So, I'd say there's a marked improvement between the two.

:eek: I take it this is a BOINC queue? How many WUs are in the queue after all that time?

...alien constipation, now I've heard of everything

Would be rather pointless stashing any length of time in boinc since the WUs are time limited for return. Classic however has no time limits, so big stashes don't affect validity, you just hope things don't crash before you dump.
 
I tried 3.03 on one of my Powermacs and it said at the end that because it wasn't the current version, it had disposed of the work unit it'd just done... and to download the new version.

Bah!
 
Yes, good times are back :cool:

Wow twilight zone or what, how did you make that post a hour into the future ?

And do you know the winning numbers for the lottery this week. :p

edit/ now im ahead a hour too, better run ato the control panel and see if I can catch up with myself.

TDF.

Confused the hell out of me that did? I posted at 0720 odd, just before I left for work :confused: What did it show?

By the way try 2 6 16 33 35 48
 
I noticed this moring that the times were out, very strange.

There is still a good case to get as many new and more importantly old crunchers on our side, a few added that already have 50,000+ WU's
would make things a lot easier ;)

[EDIT] just noticed i now got an avater. Cool :D [/EDIT]

The old SETI@home Classic project will stop issuing work on December 15, 2005. Anyone still running SETI@home Classic should deactivate it and install SETI@home/BOINC (see instructions under 'Getting started' on this page).

Wonder if although they will stop issuing work, they would keep accepting results for a few hours/days? If so, we could cache up before they turn off, if needed. Hmmm.
