FaD - Status Report on the Hordes

Hi Team,

I've just "retired" 30 PIII 550's and 2 PIII 450's. They only crunch 24x2 (2 days a week) reliably and just weren't completing jobs before the query finished and closed. I don't believe it is any big loss to the horde since they only elicited a CPU Rating in the 30-45 range.

I don't expect to see any large impact to my production as a result of this move but it just makes sense to idle slow computers.

On the other hand, how many folks can go out and remove 32 computers from a DC project and "not be concerned" about the impact.

I hope I don't sound too "cavalier" although some might take it that way. That is not my intent.

LOL! :laugh: Sounds like just a couple 3GHz boxes would produce more, actually 🙂

The cost savings will be nice as well

No cost savings at all. I won't need to manage them so I can concentrate my limited time on higher value members of the hordes. 😉


 
Once again, I'm back. Probably permanently. Insufferable problems with the hardCOREware staff.
I won't iterate why.
Just accept my FaD points.
They should quadruple in a month, or so.
This is for you, TAandy.
My regards to the Team,

Yeah ... everytime I add another computer, I must call down to the generating station and ask them to throw in another extra lump of coal for me. 😉
