I know most of you knew this, but for those of you who didn't (like me) and you new guys, the CLI kicks the GUI's butt!!!

For my test I used the benchmark wu from http://www.teamlambchop.com/bench/benchfile.htm
On my AMD 2600 with Win2k sp4, SETI GUI 3.08 & SETI CLI 3.03, it took the SETI GUI 3 hr 41 min to finish the wu, with the SETI CLI it only took 2 hr 36 min!!! That's more than an hour faster...

To setup the CLI: http://www.gygabite.com/smokeball/sigline.htm
& the new version of SetiDriver: http://www.wakeassoc.com/SETIDriver/
(thanx to Confused for the links!!!)

In the "Step-by-step Instructions" there is also a link for both the CLI Client v 3.03 and SetiDriver. :)

BTW, I used to be known as Smokeball around here. ;) lol

Sure does make a difference!:)

On my co pilots old server, a PII 333 @374 ,it reduced WU times from 20hrs/WU to 15hrs!;)
If I recall rightly the PIII 500 @515 he had at the time, came down from 15hrs to about 12hrs

Good to hear you've got things running sweet!:D

BTW, the link in the "Instruction Sigline File" has now been updated to the new SetiDriver Version 1.6.4.1
