WUs in WCG are single-threaded. A WU per core.

Yes, yes, but are typically run many at a time. I just mean I'd take a machine (or collection thereof) that took a while to complete a WU, but was able to run 360 threads at a time. (..if the price was right)

It seems like it might be cheaper all around if people joined in on a server. SL (SoftLayer) lets you rent a 16 Core for 232 a month. I'm sure the TOS says something about pegging the CPUs at 90+ though. I know Digital Ocean throttles users when they start reaching the upper limits.

edit: Since this is technically for scientific research, you could probably even get a discount on the servers.

Double edit. Had a power loss, will be down quite a few ppd today. :/

Triple edit, oh my lordy jebus: I am talking with SL now about a server, kinda just for fun but curious to find out what they could offer.

And edit number four:
First option, Single Processor Octo Core Xeon 2650 - 2.00GHz (Sandy Bridge) - 1 x 20MB cache , 8GB default RAM, 2x500GB SATA (Raid 1), 20TB default bandwidth - $450 USD
Second option we recommend is best for number crunching. That would be a GPU bare metal server --> Dual Processor Hex Core Xeon 2620 V2 - 2.10GHz (Ivy Bridge) - 2 x 15MB cache, 16GB default RAM, NVidia Tesla M2090 Graphic Card, 2x500GB SATA (Raid 1), 20TB default bandwidth - $830 USD

LOL Thanks SL.

Congrats to All of our crunchers!!!

There's a huge difference. Yet people tend to use these interchangeably. Please don't make weep in a corner...

And yeah, I see your point. I had the same thinking for ages and secretly wishing, to great extent "AMD pls mæk moar coars"
Intel shills keep going "but muh games!" and "but muh per-core performance!" but I'd say MOAR FÜKKEN COARS PLS. Because TFW an 8-core cpu does not only feel lacking for crunching, but only 8 cores feel lacking for my general work. I need more!
...Let's petition AMD to make a 32-core FX cpu and 128-core opterons.
Because that would give me a nerd-boner.

okay, I'm done. Sorry.

Umm apparently this place offers a 12/12 server for $70 a month. I wonder if sales can knock another $20 off that since 24 gb of ram and 20Tb is not needed for crunching. Hmmm.

edit again: this place is $50 a month for 12 months and you get to keep the server?! What?! Can't be...

5 people x $10 per month is gonna give a lot of ppd if anyone is interested in this. Figured if this happened we could run it under another username like bigbird. <- lol

Keep in mind that is a dual 1366 system with quad cores. Still, that is 8 cores/16 threads for crunching. And your right FS, that is a "rent to own" system. Of course that is $600 for a server that is probably worth about 1/2 that price. LOL. It is a refurbished system. Hard to say what motherboard it has. It also only includes 8 gigs of ram...........Of course that would be plenty for a remote cruncher.

None the less, good find FS!!! :respect:

I guess I can't complain much on my progress. I am running half as many rigs as i was last year and more ppd. Win win.

I finally got my one computer at work set up to crunch so hopefully I will be on the rise again. only one computer but everything helps, right?

Just want to update everyone on the Kreij tribute rig. It's been running rock solid with a slight overclock for 2 weeks. I like the production of the Thuban X6 and it should serve Dean's memory well!

I'm doing a baked boneless chicken breast, broccoli, and a little white rice daily, no burgers

... so yes I am craving

I'm thinking at least getting to the Top 100 for each TPU Team (crunching and folding) and we're nearly there

xvi · Jul 30, 2014

Speaking of cravings, I just had a cinnamon roll for breakfast. Not my proudest moment, but certainly one of the more delicious. We are the adults now and we get to decide what that means.
