Hey JeffCos, all of our new production is coming from 3.xGHz Xeon servers. We were running on a HUGE server, but being 64bit it gave horrible results and wouldn't you know it, it was the one that had a process spewing out all the bad WU's. The "work related" aspect is paying off as well, since...

Don't say it JeffCos! Nothing short of a power outage is going to slow down our production. Well, until we have to dedicate our servers to a different, less productive purpose such as work. But I know what you're saying. We get some hardware together and BAM, suddenly a banana up the...

Hello everyone, as some of you have noticed my fellow Poopflinger and I have some new hardware to burn-in for a while. We'll be back to using our own desktops soon, but hopefully we'll pump out some freaky numbers for the team in the meantime. Maybe Gravity will start sweating and get his...

Oh you flatter us r0tt3n1, but even the stench my fellow poopflinger can create after a big Taco Bell lunch doesn't last forever. Right now we're putting our home and work desktops to work with no new servers on the horizon so we're starting to feel the heat from osage and Zuke! Stitchface

50GHz worth of machines, right on! It's perfect timing too, since we (Poopflingers) will start to slow back down to a more normal level with just our home and work desktops cranking away. This weekend should see some new daily high scores for us, but starting next week points will start going...

Shy?! :moon: <-- Well that's not the kind of moon I was looking for but it will have to do! My coworker and I have been busy with a new truckload of servers so there should be interesting numbers at least through this weekend. Other than a few desktops, the folding machines are all new which...

We're flinging as fast as possible, but it's been up and down lately. We'll try not to stink up the place too much, but I'm afraid my friend has a symbiotic relationship with some kind of gastrointestinal parasite. :( All I can say is do your best not to get behind us, but we have about 50GHz...

It might also depend on what version of the 9200 you want. According to ATI's excellent product comparison, the differences in the three types of 9200's are "fast", "faster", and "fastest"! http://mirror.ati.com/products/radeon9200/radeon9200/compare.html

It's an 8 virtual CPU server. Four physical CPUs. I'd heard the same thing about hyperthreading not offering much of a speed bump, but since we plan on leaving HT turned on while it's folding (it won't be doing anything else so other applications won't matter) it still seems like there should...

My fellow Poopflinger and I have been discussing the best way to configure some 4-way Xeon servers with hyperthreading to get the most out of them during the short time we'll have them folding. The information available out there is how to configure a hyperthreaded and/or dual machine, but not...

Strange. I just got a Cold Fusion error and found my message was posted three times.

It's hard to say what might happen with our points since the output will fluctuate a lot, as my coworker and I add and remove equipment. We have a few powerful desktops involved, but much of it is done on new servers before we use them for other, less important work. We just recently started...

One of the Poopflingers here. Thanks for the welcome. We were working for MaximumPC, but it started to stink over there so we thought we'd fling some poop around here instead!
