Seti WU time for PIII 1.133?

[Mucman]

I got two 1.133 dualie machines crunchin for the next 8 hours... how many work units do you think I do?

 

[BadThad]

Depending on the chipset....BX rocks...and CAS latency. My 1GHz P3 at 1040 MHz CAS2 BX averages 5.5 hours. My 1 GHz P3 at 1025 on a VIA chipset avgs 6.5 hours. You should be around there maybe a bit more because of the dual cpu overhead. My guess...about 6 hr/wu.

 

[Mucman]

Sweet... I will only have them going for a couple days unfortunately... Just want to give Swanny and Tuffguy a little scare

Nice

What chipset have they got then Mucman?

Have no clue... they are dell 1u rackmount servers. I think they are going live soon , so I think I might only get a days worth out of em

 

[ColinP]

Would they be Tualitin at that speed ?
If so, the times might be even better ?

Yes they are Tualitin.

 

[ColinP]

I'd be really interested to see the times you get, do you know what RAM the servers use ?
I can get a Dell GX1 for free (PII350), I was thinking about getting the powerleap Tualitin Celeron upgrade for it (1.4Ghz) but I'm trying to figure out if it's worth it (the upgrade costs as much as a mobo and XP processor !!)

cheers,

Col

 

[Mucman]

Ack... Unfortunately I have a CLI window open and I am just running seti for a couple days so I won't be monitoring their progress . They both have a gig, but I am not sure the RAM they use... I wasn't that involved with the purchasing process .

Can't you point them to a Q?

[edit]a rare sighting of ColinP!

Nope... I have an internal Q at home, but nothing at work... I will probably be turning it off tommorrow since many customers want to be on these servers , I might be able to keep em going at night for the rest of the week.

Wow! Another siting of Assimilator1! Will wonders never cease!

Hey Assim......

Absense makes trhe heart grow fonder as they say !!!!!!!!
Been busy trying to keep the company afloat lately !!

Good to see you about ColinP ,hope things are working out for you!

Mucman
Why don't you just point them to a public Q? ,or is there no net access?

Ack! Good point... They aren't going to be running much longer though...

Ack! I forgot I have a Q running on my workstation at work! They are going through it now, so I just get a few workunit times

 

[Mucman]

Got some results in! Average WU time is 5 hours 45 minutes (per cpu)

 

[Assimilator1]

Nice times ,what AR were those?

 

[BadThad]

HA....my guess was only off by 15 min, hehehehe.

AR times
0.417 5h55m
0.417 5h55m
1.2 5h07m
0.621 5h59m

Luckily, I still got em working for me

 

[Assimilator1]

ahh that explains your high output!

 

[CraigRT]

My PIII 1000EB runs close to 7 hours on a crappy 815EP chipset on a TUSL2 board running Win2K.

my Athlon 900 TBird running on an Asus A7Pro KT133 chipset runs about 20-30 mins faster than the PIII 1000EB... very strange indeed.

or the Athlon just so happens to be alot better at this crap..

 

[Assimilator1]

Wierd! my old PIII 650@820 (126MHz FSB) on a BX chipset managed 7hrs/WU!

 

[BMdoobieW]

My Athlon T-Bird 1.4 @ 1550 on a MSI K7Tturbo2 board takes between 5 and 6 hours per WU. Seems to me it should be faster. My ram is K-Byte, the cheap stuff. Is that the prob?

 

[Assimilator1]

My fathers Athlon 1.4Ghz does most WU's in 5hrs ,others quicker ,though he does have good quality Crucial PC133 CL2 RAM which allows the RAm timings to be set to Turbo,CAS2,4way interleave .
I would guess your RAM timings are probably fairly conservative ,but you should at least be able to run it with 4way interleave enabled ,try it & see how your rig runs
