How to make client stop crunching OGR?

[Jutny]

I do not like OGR, i would much rather run RC5, besides im faster at it... SO how do i make the client not crunch ogr and only get work for RC5? Also, my system benchmarks @ 2.87 Mkeys/sec, but the fastest i have ever seen an rc5 block go is 1.5 mkeys/sec...

ANy help would be appreaciated

System specs are below.

Add the following to your ini file, delete any OGR buffers, than restart the client:

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

thank you, now why do i only crack at 1.5 when i bench at 2.8?

There is something stealing CPU cycles.

Are you running an OpenGL screensavers or using a CPU cooler? both of which are notorious hogs of CPU time.

If you aren't, try using Another Task Manager to check and see what processes are hogging the CPU.

 

[Jutny]

no to both... blank screen saver, and nothing running cpet dial up networking because i have to fetch new work...

kernel32.dll is hogging about 50% of power, dnetc 15% and ATm(the monitoring program) 36%

ATM has a built in soft-cooling feature that you should turn off. Also, let it run at 5 sec intervals for 10 minutes or so.

I don't know why kernal32 might be hogging all the time.


Edit: I just figured out what the problem is. You like [H]ard OCP

[H]ard|OCP is much [H]arder then Anandtech will ever be.... that said, do i smell smoke... nevermind


ok, but i turned atm off, its not still running hidden is it?

 

[sciencewhiz]

I meant to turn the soft cooling off.

I'm not at home to check for sure, but if ATM doesn't show up when you do ctrl-alt-delete, then it is not running.

If you really want to get better times, you should try reinstalling windoze. probably something went haywire, which only a reinstall will fix.
