A new alpha testing version of Muon1 is available from this thread:
http://stephenbrooks.org/forum/?thread=1523
Please leave any comments on the program there.
There's now an updated version of viewresults.exe as well (in the _alpha6 archive), which shouldn't flicker in Windows 7 like the old one did. These new builds are available at http://stephenbrooks.org/muon1/hidden/scan/ and the scan test is explained in the forum thread.
Converting to...
The newest alpha client now has support for multi-monitor spanning in graphics mode. I'm hoping for some people to test it over the next few days and report any further bugs on the forums at stephenbrooks.org/forums
Now there's a new scan starting here: http://stephenbrooks.org/forum/?thread=1436&start=200 and it comes with an improved alpha build of Muon1 for reduced noise.
Yes, I'll be plotting the graph as chunks of it come in. I think most users who understand how Muon1 creates a design from parameters could be interested in seeing this.
There's a new thing going on in Muon1 and it's here: http://stephenbrooks.org/forum/?thread=1436
Best put any technical comments on that thread if you can. Basically I'm doing a scan of some special batches of workunits, which should produce an interesting graph (well, a graph that I find...
Oh, so it's THAT far off-topic in here. Thing is, there wasn't really a "general" category in the rest of the forum, so I posted here... :)

Well it's been a while since I posted here. When I first...
OK, I used to read The Inquirer for my computer-related news but it's gone from brilliant (circa 2006) into a constant downward spiral with intrusive adverts and fewer articles by the decent writers who know what they're talking about. So... I think Anandtech is soon going to become my first...
They should have built the LHC by now anyway. ;) Actually there are some delays, I wonder how long until they install and fix in place the magnets that you're simulating though? I believe they want to switch the beam on later in 2008, and wouldn't want to have to shut down too much to...
I missed a chance to see the shuttle chasing the ISS once, and then just caught the ISS on its own (actually with the shuttle docked). The speed of it is even more impressive using binoculars when you can see it tracking across fainter stars and also get some impression that it is not a just a...
I noticed some funny ups and downs in the overall calculation rate in Muon1, first it went up, I think when I released the 4.44d stable version, but also apparently some people came off a "challenge" on another DC project. Then it went down again about the time when people found these results...
I wonder if waffleironhead can change the subtitle of this thread to say 4.44d instead of c now?
--[Does a single client now load multi core rigs to 100%? & does it match performance of 1client/core?]--
Multiple installs will always give the maximum possible performance (because they are N...
Yeah and I don't think apple use either of those chips atm.
That's a surprisingly good idea, provided those are all 1-thread clients.
Penryn is a dual core, Kentsfield was two Conroes (predecessor to Penryn) stuck on a die, and now the new two-Penryns-stuck to gether core is called...
I found it's actually faster by maybe 10% on a Kentsfield, but someone else on the forum is saying it's slower by roughly the same amount. I'm not sure, but it will be the standard client soon for doing stuff with. Though there's also room for improvement in the speed.
Well it's not entirely a repair job but I'm posting a version when I've got somewhere. Have fixed a few things but not the -2%/0Mpts bug, so 4.44b is taken down, with 4.44c coming some time this week, hopefully when I've replicated and fixed that bug.
Fixed, via new lattices actually. There was an error in the lattices where I left the "AbsorptionLength" for the orange annulus unspecified. That meant particles went right through in v4.44, which looks for this parameter (4.43x just assumed everything was solid, I think).
There is...
I kept the Mpts/sec for a given PC roughly the same! It's just each simulation will take a bit longer, but will also register for proportionately more score.
It's an annoying prompt that I've decided really shouldn't be there. Basically it's trying to verify the checksum for an old lattice that you have results for but I've removed from the network. In v4.43d this won't actually prompt you if you're in background mode, but in cmdline and graphical...
If you run the graphical version (just the once muon1.exe) it ought to give you a box where you can type your name in and it'll create the file for you...
Best approach is just to make one user.txt and copy the file around if you have more than one install (you can copy config.txt too for...
As with JonB, I'd be kind of interested in the Phenom in Muon1 perforance too :laugh: Unfortunately we've already spent our computer budget for the year here but at least I could add another bar to the graphs in the benchmarking thread
--[Grrr ,anyone know how to change the font on the whole excel page to be the same?]--
Don't you just click on the top-left corner of the sheet (where the horizontal and vertical grey bars meet) and then set the font to what you want there?
The main thing they want is a more precise determination of the three neutrino masses. We have a better idea of the masses of the other 9 particles of matter, but neutrinos weren't even known to have any mass until the 1990s.
The interesting thing is how they have very small masses, at a...
The LHC is a collider of protons with protons, at the high energy (will be the highest ever achieved) of 7TeV per beam. This is a search for exotic particles at energy scales currently inaccessible at lower energies.
The neutrino factory has a different problem: neutrinos don't require a...

The LHC project was quite odd as they'd already built a load of magnets that they were going to use in the tunnel but wanted to know what was the best order to put them in (having tested them all and recorded each one's particular errors).
But in the scheme of things that's a relatively minor...
I just got to work and found the problem - it wasn't refreshing the samplefiles with the right filenames (I convert most filenames that are going onto the web to lowercase) so it was looking for "phaseroteby5" when the file was actually called "PhaseRotEby5". This problem doesn't apply to the...
