Please post the results of the test you run.

lol, I have no idea about that technical stuff.

All I know is that when I ran LLR before, I was able to get something like 30-40% more total processing done when I ran 2 instances. I did nothing to the machine settings to get this result. All I can tell you is that's its a 3.2 Ghz Dell desktop from 2004.

As an example, if an LLR test took 100 secs. running one instance, it took ~150 secs. when running 2 instances. So in 300 secs., I was able to get 4 tests running 2 instances and 3 tests running 1 instance or 33% more testing with 2 instances. (Close to the exact test that I remember.)

I'm on my way home shortly...I'll try it first with some manual LLR tests and then with LLRnet tests. I'll let you know how it comes out.

Proposing pair 465/282619 to PC_3

LOGGING OUT

Could not send result.
The server refused your new result :
either someone else computed it already,
either the server is now configured to
work on other numbers.recv error res=-1, errno=0
connection closed (socket 400)

Never seen that before but I am receiving a few (20 or more) rejected pairs from you.
I advise all before the start of the rally to increase the cache size to 10 or 15 because I suppose there will be some delay on client/server connection.

seems there're some server problems?!
carlos is not online! hope he fix it!

I will have to reconfigure the proxy back to my other work. hopefully i'll have time to flush it back out and join the rally tomorrow.

Yes, I'm experiencing problems, too--none of my clients are able to pick up any work or report any results. Fortunately I was able to switch my primary machine back to some manual work I've got sitting around, but Carlos had still better get it fixed in time for the rally...

Update: I tried troubleshooting what's going on, and it would seem that the port 100 server is down, but not the port 300 one. If I use the nc command in Linux to attempt a connection with the server, I can at least establish a connection on port 300, but I get a "connection refused" for port 100.

kar_bon · 2008-02-23, 04:24

yep, so to me: 300 ok, 100 down!
hope carlos won't sleep tooooooo long

gd_barnes · 2008-02-23, 04:29

OH!! And I thought I was hallucinating as I tried to test my Athlons and my 3.2-Ghz P4. They both went right into sleep mode

It's 4:30 AM in Portugal now. I'm sure he'll get it fixed in the morning. I'll be up 2 hours before the rally to test them then. Back to sieving...but I'll test again before I go to bed in about 4 hours.

I hope my work machines are able to start again. Unfortunately this is a big loss of processing power for me overnight on 7 machines and I just set them to port 100 this afternoon. Things had been running so well for the last week that I only set them for 5 pairs in the cache. It figures that that would happen after I had 100 pairs in the cache for port 300 all week.

When Carlos gets things working again, can anyone tell me if everyone's machines will automatically start recieving k/n pairs again? Or will LLRnet have to be restarted on each machine?

I may have to make a stop into work 1 hour before the rally.

Ewwwwwe! Gross! Not the kind of pizza I want. Funny thing is my son and I had pizza tonight!

How old are your girls? I have a 12-year-old daughter and 15-year-old son.
