I thought ECCp and Seti played together nicely?

I always thought ECCp and Seti played together nicely, sharing the toys evenly, but now i find out the Seti is the evil older brother who steals all the toys from ECCp, leaving ECCp sitting in the corner crying, only getting a brief glimpse at the toys as Seti runs around playing in joy!


😉



Seriously tho, i thought ECCP and Seti running at Low were both equal, tho Seti seems to be a higher priority. I'm using the Statsaholic Athlon optomised ECCp client (unless someone wants to remind me of the better one, with linky 😉)


Will these play nicely or will ECCp have to go to dual Celeron once i get some more RAM for it? (64mb wiv Win2k/XP won't be nice!)

Thanks in advance 🙂

I'm interested in the answer to this too, as I have a dual Xeon rig that I'd like to set up in a similar fashion.

As of late, I've been running F@H on the 1st cpu and S@H on the 2nd for each of my dual-cpu machines.
 
When i was running ECCp and Seti together on my Dualie Celeron, i had Seti with Seti driver with processor affinity on with one process, to lock that to CPU0, then ran ECCp and changed affinity to CPU1 manually. That seemed to work pretty well, but i've not done it on a single CPU machine yet
 
I can't answer the question about SETI, but I can answer the ECCp one. The ECCp client runs at idle on the low setting.

If you want the fastest GUI client.
If you want the fastest CLI client.

The CLI client runs default at the normal setting.
 
I've got both seti and eccp running on one of my 2k boxes, and they do appear to be playing nice together. I'm using seti driver and the statsaholic edition of eccp.

Granted, i'm only running them concurrently until i deplete the number of units in seti driver, but it's been running at 50-50 for the past few days, so it shouldn't have a problem doing it over a long period of time. I think it does screw up the seti driver's time estimation to complete a wu, though, since the estimated times to complete haven't changed, but the actual times have doubled.

Hope this helps.
 
I'm doing a manual time-share, since 1) I can't get them to share nicely and 2) the computer gets a bit sluggish with them both running at once.

Actually Setidriver is working just fine. It is reporting the amount of "CPU" time not real time. Since the cpu only gets half the time it will show a 5 hour Wu that actually takes 10 hours to complete.

Up until recently I had SETI & ECCp installed on a few machines. They split the CPU by about 50/50. ECCp got a little over 1/2 of the CPU power if I watched it in task manager for a while. No problems running the 2 together either. 🙂
 
I know for sure that in Windows 2K SETI does not play nicely with Distributed Folding for those that may wonder.
 
Hrm, maybe just me going mad 😉


OK, i've just checked again now, and they both are sharing 50/50! :Q


Oh well!
