Going back to Windows is going to be a killer

But I might leave Ubuntu on for another couple of weeks.

WoZZeR · 20 Jun 2007 at 12:04

Very nice, keep it up.

How much faster is using Linux than Windows to crunch ?

10ish-15ish percent?

And when your dealing with 1600-2000ppd units that really adds up

Cob · 20 Jun 2007 at 15:53

Depends. I'm finding 4 clients in native Ubuntu are about 25-30% faster than 4 clients spread over two VMWare VMs.

I was getting about 3200ppd at the most in Windows, whereas a solid 4000+ppd is more than attainable in native Ubuntu.

God I can't wait until I get my quaddie!

Going to overclock it within an inch of its life! 5000PPD here I come

4k + 1.8k = more that 5K

SiriusB · 20 Jun 2007 at 16:46

The Quad is a direct replacement of my E6600. Dont have money for a whole new system.

shadowscotland · 20 Jun 2007 at 17:10

If you need a home of that E6600 - I'll have it

You'll need it soon if you want to avoid getting stomped!

I can beleave your at 235k with only 500wu's
I hit 250k with 1200wu's :eek:

And I'm sure some of these long timers took 2000wu's 'back in the day'

Don't you just love SMP clients....

Cob · 20 Jun 2007 at 17:27

I'm at 377k with only 444 WU's

Shadow: Happy to flog it to a fellow team member, assuming I'm not stupid enough to think I can afford a second system AND get away with it [ie parents].

ms9cw: No chance! Even if I dropped a quaddie in right now you'd still stomp me in a short amount of time.

WoZZeR · 20 Jun 2007 at 22:46

That's a seriously nice output you have there Cob, keep it up.

I'm hoping to get a Quad Core as well, I shall probably take one of the GFX cards out of the W/C loop so I can seriously clock it, temps with the twin XTX's are preventing me from taking the E6700 to the 400FSB limit of the Shuttle at the moment. Either that or add a twin 80mm Radiator to the back panel.......
