Thanks Peter! :thumbsup:

It's hard to decide, though most of the slower ships of the fleet will be doing MC to chase BOINC Synergy still I'm trying to figure out a revisit on a past project or something new. Decisions, decisions... :confused:

Thanks Peter :)

I'm going to continue MC a little and get Rosetta over 25K (and maybe something new? Are we supposed to do two projects only?)

Awesome, well since I'm putting a lot of effort into QMC and Seti, I'll make those my Boinc projects for the month! :D

I am crunching seti@home (~50%), QMC@Home (~10%), SIMAP (~10%) and Einstein@home (~10%). Then some comps (Mac) also crunch Predictor, MalariaControl and RNC. :D

I thought this was an old link from 2004 (?). I like the idea of your choice of 2!!!

Mine will be QMC (7/10), Xtremlab (1/10).

Einstein (1/10) - to sloowwly reach 100k and Climate (1/10) - to reach 300k.

I am hoping (and looking forward ;-)) to get my new X2 4800+ running within the next week. Then that will do Xtremelab / QMC.

I put a mild little overclock on my Pentium D 805 It seems to like uFluids, and I'm using the new BOINC 5.4.11 client. Who knew there was a new client out? :)

-jim

edit: It's running at a blazing 86F. Do you think it'll be OK? ;)

I'm running Rosetta, RALPH, Malaria, XtremLab, Rectilinear Crossing, Tanpaku, Cunning Plan, Chess960, BOINC Alpha, Leiden Classical, and HashClash, LCN, Pirates and BURP when work is available. I was also running VTU for a while but it seems their validation system is messed up and hasn't awarded any points for quite a long time so I quit that one. Of course, I'm technically not a member of TAS so it doesn't really count, but since you folks were posting lists I couldn't resist. :D

Cunning Plan? You're not supposted to run this, since the only purpose if this project is to test if creating accounts and "attaching" to a project works correctly... For this reason, it's AFAIK the only BOINC-project there users also can delete their account after testing...

As for BOINC alpha, as the Instructions for testers clearly states Please do not stay attached to this project for long periods.

Technically neither Cunning Plan or BOINC Alpha run much. I did return quite a few results initially but lately I just run Alpha jobs when testing new versions of the client for the Alpha project. Cunning Plan doesn't run full time either, just once in a while when I'm testing a client version, the project server is actually up, and I feel like reconnecting and making Comcast mad at me for overloading the upload bandwidth on my connection with a batch of those 4.1MB results. :)

The Cunning Plan is a test project and is down a lot. You can find a link in my "sticky" thread. ;)

If you can manage to get attached and actually download usable work units (only 1 of the PCs I tried was able to get work without errors), the download and upload files are 4.1MB each (take about 3-5 minutes to upload 2 at a time on my connection) and only take about a minute to process so I can easily exceed the upload cap on my cable line with just a handful of pending work units from the project. :D

But it annoys Comcast (they actually called me about it once when I had about 50 work units all trying to upload at the same time), and it makes my wife mad since she can't browse the Internet while BOINC is hogging the bandwidth, and the project really isn't designed to process work like other projects, so I haven't done it lately...
