Dismantling the Berlin Waltz (Nov 28 2007)

Turns out I was misinformed: while Arecibo Observatory is currently being recommissioned, the ALFA receiver still isn't attached yet and won't be after some more cleanup. In short, the ETA is still TBD. So be it.

Currently (at least as I am writing this) we are in the midst of another "crunch" period where workunits are returning much faster than normal, thereby swamping our servers. This time Jeff and I looked at the results. The bunch we observed weren't "noisy" - they were normal workunits that just happened to finish quick due to their slew rates. This isn't a scientific/project problem - it's simply just extra load on our servers (a.k.a. a free "stress test").

We're getting prepared for another donation drive. I just updated the hardware donation page, for example.

Appart for Anandtech's stats, it shows how much more/less than Anandtech.
Also shows based on Average Work Done how many days for Anandtech to overtake the team, or be overtaken by a team behind...

I wasn't aware that arecibo was awol. where are we getting the current WU's, are they from the new array that paul allen helped fund?

edit: obligatory trash-talk: taiwan, we're taking you mofos down, down to chinatown! or something like that...

 

[Philippart]

We're crunching still uncrunched data recording earlier this year (February and March).

 

[petrusbroder]

Thanks for the stats, Rattledagger! 😀
Great output again! Well done, TeAm! :sun:

 

[Assimilator1]

I thought we were now getting new WUs from the new multi beam splitter? (don't know which dish).


Nice output by us 🙂
I've been stabilty testing/find my CPUs limit most of this week ,started crunching SETI on it again yesterday 🙂 (on 2 cores anyway) ,final speed is 3.05GHz.......for now anyway😉

Will be good to be pass Taiwan again 😀

 

[bryanW1995]

why only 2 cores?

 

[Assimilator1]

I've gone back to crunching DPAD on my other 2 cores😉
