Daily Stats Question

Jaraxal

Senior member
I just recently upgraded my one machine (PIII 600) to 2 seperate machines (Duron650s@900).

When I look at the daily stats (should be updated over the last few days), I am not seeing any change. It isn't showing my block being done. I have verified my email address.

Any ideas?
 
Jaraxal,

Are you talking about RC5? If so, did you make sure to disable OGR when you did the install on the two new machines? If it's doing OGR, it might put your RC5 production back down to what it was with a single machine doing only RC5. If this is the case, add the following line to your ini files on the systems, and restart the client:

[misc]
project-priority=RC5,OGR=0,DES=0,CSC=0

If the two machines are not networked, then you will have to fetch/flush via the Internet seperately. Have you dialed up and flushed both machines?

If they are networked, are you using shared buffers? The machine that is holding the buffers should be set up so that it can fetch enough work for at least two days of crunching. Just in case all hell breaks loose and the keyservers go down. I'd suggest a buffer size of about 3,000 blocks.

Restart the client on both machines and double check the 6th line and see if there is any typo in your e-mail address: Using email address (distributed.net ID) 'bgodfrey@dia.net'

Other than that, I'll need some more info about your set up to figure it out.

EDIT Look like Russ nailed it right on the head: OGR-24 Stats
 
Russ,

Was OGR disabled on your dialup disk settings or do I need to do that tinkering of the ini files too (that would really be no man's land for me 🙁)?
 
I have already had the problem with the OGR taking precedence. I fixed that just after my upgrade, so I am only doing RC5. I have verified that my email address is correct. Both machines are networked (cable modem, through Linksys Cable/DSL router) and are on 24/7.

I just can't figure out why my stats aren't changing. They haven't changed in 2 days. I am able to do about 3.15Mkeys PER machine. That is much better than the 1.2MKeys or so I was getting with the other machine.

I would just like to make sure my stats are being updated and credited to Team AnandTech as they should be. ;-)
 
I just did a manual flush and that would seem to be the problem.... It had 445 packets on each machine just waiting.

I never had to manually flush before.... Is there a setting for that?
 
Yes at the buffer update options set the following:

[buffers]
frequent-threshold-checks=1
threshold-check-interval=0:30
 
Yes, set the number of blocks in your ini file to a smaller number,if it is currently at 500 (for example) set it to 128 or as low as 32 (this is assuming you have your block size at 33). It will look like this:

[rc5]
fetch-workunit-threshold=128
randomprefix=210
preferred-blocksize=33

🙂
 
Now I remember changing one of the settings : fetch threshhold checks ... I changed it to RC5=0,OGR=0. I thought I saw that on a site somewhere. I guess that is what changed the auto flush.
