TAC NOTE: FreeHAL@Home

[Rudy Toody]

All crunchers on FreeHAL@Home need to reattach to the project.

Thanks for that TAC-note, Fred - although I do not crunch that project - yet ...

I was going to say that I don't either because they only have Windows apps, but I just checked and they have Linux apps as of 17 April.

I have cranked it up on one box. It is setup like QCN@Home---one (or more) WUs are processing along side the rest of the Boinc apps. So, I have 5 slots going on the quad. I changed the preferences to 4 concurrent processes to see what the impact is on Milkyway and SHA.

Each WU appears to take about 30 min.

With 4 concurrent processes they don't stop. I had to abort at 108%.

They also take away from the other slots by quite an amount.
