If we are to place bets, then we are going to have to know the stats of which ya'll are crunching with... I quit betting on names with greyhounds. If you are going to bet on horses, you have to know the numbers. :laugh:

petrusbroder · Sep 16, 2006

As it is now it is only Petrus vs. Assimilator1 ...

Others may join - after checking with Assimilator1 or with me.
How we will handle additional crunchers we have not decided yet ... :Q

Assimilator1 · Sep 16, 2006

lol.

Hey Pete ,will you be adding the number of Mpts crunched from the startline too?
Will give a better idea of how the race is goin

Your output back to normal?

Btw is UTC same as GMT?

FMC
lol
I'm still running my XPM 2500 @2.5GHz ,though its not 24/7 anymore but 14/7 on average.That gives a theoretical maximium of about 11,700 Mtps/day (24/7 would be about 20,100)

My 2nd rig a Sempron64 3100 @2.5GHz ,does just a few hours or none at all in the week & a handful of hours over the weekend.So that don't do much ,if it were on 24/7 I estimate it'd do 23,100 Mpts

One day I may get around to swapping mbrds & CPUs around from my 2nd rig to my main rig.
My 2nd rig is about 15% faster at DPAD & uses about 1/3 less power! (XPM rig uses ~185w & the Sempron uses ~125w ,though the XPM has more RAM & a thirstier graphics card).I've put off doing it though as I'm not convinced Win XP will handle the changes & I CBA to re-install windows on both rigs

petrusbroder · Sep 16, 2006

If you do not mind I could keep tabs too.

My office computer seems to have recovered ... but we will see later. Otherwise I'll look into it monday morning

Half the year UTC = GMT. No daylight saving time though, so now (until DST ends) UTC=GMT - 1 :Q

Assimilator1 · Sep 16, 2006

Atm we're on BST (British Summer Time) because of no DST ,so we're on GMT+1

I think GMT is excluded from DST,as is UTC,isn't it?

lol

And yea go for it re stats

petrusbroder · Sep 16, 2006

Hmmmm, now I know that GMT is excluded from DST, so: GMT = UTC (almost) all the time. The difference is approximately 1 second each 1 - 1½ years.

UTC is the Universal Time, Coordinated, all civilian time is based on UTC.
GMT is the time zone where the UK is.

Look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinated_Universal_Time

Assimilator1 · Sep 16, 2006

All civilian time used to be co-ordinated from GMT.

I think we can ignore 1s/yr

Yeah Zulu time. I remembe someone lost their birthday while going over the international date line. It was hilarious. We celebrated his birthday three months later when we crossed back.

CupCak3 · Sep 16, 2006

fight fight fight

petrusbroder · Sep 16, 2006

@ CupCak3: with whom? Petrus is looking around - doesn't see any fight

Assimilator1 · Sep 16, 2006

Nah I don't see one either..............its a slaughter!

FMC
lol
But what's Zulu time?

Zulu time, is maritime talk for GMT. The time zones correspond with letters of the alphabet. I don't remember them anymore, but I'm sure I can find them if someone's interested.

petrusbroder · Sep 16, 2006

Or I am so much ahead that the fight is far behind me!

Edit:
Hmmm, quite a few Mpts are on the kick-ass-server. When does that one report? :Q

Assimilator1 · Sep 16, 2006

Ouch! ,man you need to sort that server out!

Thanks for the stats

Thanks for the stats

I wish I could

According to my sendlog.log, 49 results (approx. 8 000 Mpts) have been sent to white-panther.kick-ass.net. Unfortunately I have no access to that server (obviously

) so I can not upload any results to Stephens site ...

Assimilator1 · Sep 17, 2006

Thanks for stats Peter

I forget that DPAD doesn't have a single server collecting the results (like SETI does) ,so I guess a load of yours got trapped for a while.

Btw I have to confess that my 2nd rig was on much of Saturday daytime

,I was testing a new HSF ,it did have an AMD retail heatpipe unit which on that day was giving me 42C.
The replacment unit was giving me 35-36C

,of course I had to give it a proper test

I suspect my lead will be whittled down through the week

Electricity bills ,I know 1 week won't make much difference but the landlady might get funny about it..........mind you she wouldn't know if I had 1 or 2 rigs on during the agreed uptime

I see I closed the gap by 1k

,I doubt that'll be enough even if its daily , is the race til Saturday? hmm think I'll have to fire up my 2nd rig
