[QUOTE=gd_barnes;289916]... Is there something wrong with the rally stats at [URL]http://www.noprimeleftbehind.net/stats/index.php?content=gauntlet_20120218[/URL]?

Yes. Indeed there was.
Can you sing "Lets doooooo the time warp AGAAAAAAAIN!" lol
2011 instead of 2012. >>facepalm<<
There is an update in progress which will finish in about 10 minutes.
I'll push a manual update as soon as that gets out of the way.

EDIT - results are up.

I need some technical support please.

Win 7 64-bit box running an Intel Q6600 CPU.

When it is configured to run Port=9000 tasks all is good.
Using prpclient.ini:
//server=G2000:100:1:noprimeleftbehind.net:2000
server=G9000:100:1:noprimeleftbehind.net:9000

When I modify the prpclient.ini file and try to start the application it briefly shows it tries to open a DOS box but this disappears immediately.
Using modified prpclient.ini:

server=G2000:100:1:noprimeleftbehind.net:2000
//server=G9000:100:1:noprimeleftbehind.net:9000

What is wrong?

Have you unfinished work left from 9000 ?

Finish them or remove them.

or change prpclient.ini when it is running to stopasapoption=2

Yes.

OK will do.

[QUOTE=vaughan;289943]Yes.

Or let this line be open //server=G9000:100:1:noprimeleftbehind.net:9000
like this

server=G9000:100:1:noprimeleftbehind.net:9000

change 100 to 0

server=G9000:0:1:noprimeleftbehind.net:9000

and it looks like this

server=G2000:100:1:noprimeleftbehind.net:2000
server=G9000:0:1:noprimeleftbehind.net:9000

Open the command prompt and start the client manually. It will output a message with a description of the problem.

I'm surprised at the fact that my quad core i5-750, with about 16 complete per hour, places me dead last out of the active participants in the rally.
I'm using 32-bit cllr 3.8.4 to run the tests (my OS is 64-bit). Is there any better software to run for my hardware, or am I simply behind because of the others having more/better hardware?

Try to use the actual 3.8.7 llr64 dev builds. In most cases there speedups at around 10% on 64bit systems.

You are doing extremely well in the stats if that is your only crunching rig.

I have 7 Phenom II cores running (3.35-3.6ghz) and your system is keeping up.

Ah, thanks, prompted by this I did some more searching and found the 64-bit Windows build.

Yes, that's my only rig. You're doing about 30/hour. Per core, you're doing slightly better than me, which is to be expected given the CPU (Intel generally runs FFTs faster than comparable AMD) and GHz (I'm 2.8 GHz) differences.

@ Lennart: has anything changed in your windows 7z download package?

I have downloaded it a few times today and after I update the master_prpclient.ini config file with my ID details etc and put in the line containing the port 9000 stuff (server=G2000:100:1:noprimeleftbehind.net:2000) and //commenting out the other projects/ports the app fails with a Windows message (prpclient.exe is missing).

I have run the quad update batch file once (4-quad-update-prpclient.bat) and then try to run quad start (4-quad-start-prpclient.bat) and it says the prpclient.exe is missing. I also noticed that the 4 sub-directories that were created by the previous installation package are not made now with today's package (I guess that explains the missing prpclient.exe message).


All times are UTC. The time now is 10:09.
