LOL, funny I was just thinking about that issue lately and how things can go awry when you go too far in the cyberworld of relationship...

I guess great minds do really get along....

Hi there Deb,

How ya doin over there?

If anyone is wondering, this is my sister. :D Just told her about the new board. She's crunching under my name on a Plll 750 @ 825 (had to downclock it do to heat) that I built for her. :cool:

Well Hi Debra :)

Glad to meet you, kind of spooky feeling though, cos I think you must have the advantage if you've been lurking all that time. Are you going to be more active on the boards now? We've other ladies in here now, so you're not alone :)

Hi again and welcome :)

I've got to tell ya I'm in shock. I had no clue. To see your handy work on the case mod... I'm blown away. Please don't get me wrong here... it's fantastic what you've done. I would hope my daughter Sarah would be as adventurous with computers as you have been. She is kind of interested now but I can't wait to show her what you have done.

The thought of my wife with sharp power tools hacking her computer to bits.... that would definately be the Twilight Zone.

Damn proud you are on our team!

But erm, I think I owe you an apology, I was joking, I'm not a girl really. I guess it was aimed at the guys who i've been hanging with for a while and should've realised that the folks who don't know me round here might take that post seriously. Sorry Will, no intent to decieve, I surely am male, at least last time I checked. The real name is actually Martyn :)

Hehe.

Infact it was a veiled reference to that guy over on ARS that made the news. There was a thread about it on the old a.c.h.o forum. He logged on pretending he was a girl for fun, got fed up with all the guys flirting with him. To put them off, he created a relationship with himself, which went on for quite some time. Eventually, he dug himself in so deep, to get out of it, he decided to kill off his femme alter-ego in a fatal car accident. Problem was, (the sad part) he got ton's of genuine letters of sympathy, from other forum users. Eventually, he confessed all and was banned from the forums. It made headlines somewhere.

I can give you my address so you drop by, then I'll show you the way to redemption (there's a church accross the street... LOL).

You go down town in Montreal take the subway and go off at Berri-UQUAM station, you take the Ste-Catherine Street exit and just walk the street... one out of two store is a nudies one (maybe less...) you can't miss them, there's big neons with naked girls advertising them... if you go too much in ther east toward Ontario Street (sorry for my fellow Canadian but it'S like this, didn't name the street myself...) it get's harder there, the whore are on the street at day....

But wait a minute.... you're in The Netherlands,,,, why bother then you must see way more than we do in the Red Light, Montreal is an open city but no way like Amsterdam...

Have a nice trip, drop by if you come in town...

BTW: My dad live's in Geldrop, he works for DAF...

Hi All!

I'll use this topic to make my intro...

Adding to the few, I see...

I decided to join after seeing how close the battle between you and Picard is. Thought the processing power I bring to the game might be helpful:

Dual 1.13 PIII/512 - Windows 2k Pro
Dual 1.13 PIII/1024 - Linux RedHat 7.1 SMP
Dual 900 PIII/512 - Linux RedHat 7.1 SMP
Dual 733 PIII/512 - Windows 2k Pro
Sngl 933 AMD/512 - Linux RedHat 7.1
Sngl 1.13 PIII/512 x2 - Linux RedHat 7.1
Sngl 733 PIII/1024 x2 - Windows2k Pro
Sngl 600 PIII/256 x2 - Windows2k Pro

That's my home lab, yup, somewhere around 12Ghz of processing power, and unless I have some burning personal project, they'll stay just about 100% utilized on the project. Since I'm so busy with work and travel these days, it's most likely going to remain fully dedicated to G@H. They're not all up and running G@H yet, but will be as soon as I finish off the last few Seti batches (6000+ in the last year, but they really don't need me any more with 3mil+ users). I just brought the first Dual 1.13 and the first two single 1.13's online a moment ago. The 933 is going up after this post. The two single 733's will be online in about 4hrs. The remainder will trickle in over the next couple of days.

My two laptops - 733 PIII/128/W2k and 850 PIII/256/W2k will be in and out of the equation during travel.

I'm the Chief Technology Officer for Interact Devices, 29/F and single (no time for a guy in my life at present) and developing some fantastic new video and audio compression methodologies involving neural networking...

Anyway, that's enough about me for the moment... Die Picard!
:D

So I guess this means you've assimilated my technology?!?!

Current score: Dual 1.13 running W2k Pro, two single 1.13's running RedHat 7.1 and a single 933 AMD running RedHat 7.1 have now been retasked to G@H. The W2k's are running 'Realtime' and the RedHats are niced to -20...

Thank you! (on all counts)

As for the OS - I have just about every OS conceivable running on some piece of hardware or another (time for that Solaris port, darn it! I have a screaming Solaris box...) The pure, unadulterated FACT is that, clock for clock, Linux is the fastest operating system for raw number crunching in a 1-4 processor box. (break into the six-eight range and Solaris kicks its bootie, however.) For something like G@H I'm seeing that a Linux box, properly tuned, running 733/256 is identical speed to a W2k, properly tuned, running 1.13/512. I mean to within a half a second or so. THAT'S pretty darned significant when you're throwing around half a dozen 1.13s. Anyway, enough spouting, time for a meeting! Thanks again!

What sort of times were you getting for SETI? When I was running SETI, I was using purely Win2K and with my PIII700@1120Mhz I could turn in a work unit in between 3 and 4 hours....sometimes hit sub 3 hours. Here's a pic of my SetiSpy logfile. (http://homepage.ntlworld.com/phil.harling/images/log.gif) It would be interesting to see what I could have done running Linux.

welcome Jodie, great to have you aboard.

Or pretends to know, anyway...

I actually did my MS-N and a BS in molecular microbiology a few years ago. Decided to get out of computing science and go into nursing. Did the MS so I could be competative for flight nurse. Did my rotation through pediatrics, hung it up and went back into computing. 29, divorced, no children and working will severely ill children all day long (and often criminally stupid parents whom I'd almost enjoy MAKING terminally ill...) was something I emotionally couldn't handle at the end of a shift... If I could have stayed in emergency medicine, I'd have been fine, believe it or not.

What area of nursing do you work in? How long have you been doing it?

Thanks for the welcome!

(http://homepage.ntlworld.com/phil.harling/images/log.gif) It would be interesting to see what I could have done running Linux.

My average was 6 hrs 13mins when I pulled the plug last night on the last of them, but I started out running 133mhz machines, too... Towards the end there, I was chunking out a work unit about every hour and a quarter on the Linux machines, 3 and a half hours on the W2k pro machines identically configured... In the interest of full disclosure, I had my own kernel version for seti work, though. Tore everything out of the kernel that wasn't absolutely necessary, had nearly zero other processes running, and had hand optimized my seti client code. So it was an 'unauthorized' version... Hard to do that with windows.

Windows is a fine desktop operating system. But the instant you tell me that my server or number cruncher REQUIRES a GUI, I'm going to lable is a toy rather than a real system...

What motherboard are you running on your dual? I think it's time to turn up the volume a bit on atleast the liquid cooled system... What's your cooling methodology? Did you go core or fsb or both, if I may ask (in the wrong thread)?

That's sooo cool :)


Well, I am using an Abit VP6 dual board....very stable and great performance. I am currently aircooled on the dually, but I was running H2O (distilled water and Redline Water wetter). I have 2 PIII700's that will both run 160fsb, but require 1.95V. As the VP6 only gives 1.85 max to a cB0 stepping PIII, the highest I can run these dual is 155fsb (1085Mhz each). When I installed my SCSI card, I found that it wouldn't operate above 150fsb. This is when I removed my peltiers and water and went back to plain jane aircooling.

As for Intel CPU's....you are limited to just upping the FSB as the multiplier is locked unlike on the T-Birds. My next upgrade is Dual T-Birds - probably on an Abit or Iwill mobo.

For the T-Bird, I am running H20 with water wetter. I can run 160fsbx9.5 no problems, but I run 150x10.5 as I can run my RAM at CAS2.

Check out the Linux forum...and put dnar in his place :)

Great pics! I'm contemplating a case mod in the sometime near future as well. Probably on the Lian Li since it's such a pretty (and BIG) case.

I enjoyed ICU and ER, as well as my time doing surgical assisting... It was just the pediatrics rotation. . . .

Well, with half of my processing power online, it looks like I'm doing about 12-15 WU/24hr day now. So figure 25-30 starting around midnight tonight...

wahoo, that is some processing power. Stanford just farms out the genes in an ad-hoc fashion. Sometimes they're small, sometimes they're big, but it has been shown that you get "slightly" more bang for your mhz with 100aa+ genes. So if you download one and see it, you can run it with the -nonet switch for max results. If you can turn out 30 x 50aa genes/24 hrs, that will likely give you in the region of 450WU's day - about 5% of the total team output - you're gonna worry some of the big guns in here :D

Makes a tremendous difference, just looking at the numbers running...

Somewhere I saw a screen shot of a 'genome spy' application. Was that a mockup, or does it exist? I'll be bringing on another six machines tonight, and would love to have some centralized control over the network. Do you have anything you recommend for that?

Hope I'm not being a pest... I have that same excited feeling that I got when I started SETI a couple years ago, only better - I couldn't care less about ET, but genomic research hits much closer to home...

I actually did my MS-N and a BS in molecular microbiology a few years ago. Decided to get out of computing science and go into nursing. Did the MS so I could be competative for flight nurse. Did my rotation through pediatrics, hung it up and went back into computing. 29, divorced, no children and working will severely ill children all day long (and often criminally stupid parents whom I'd almost enjoy MAKING terminally ill...) was something I emotionally couldn't handle at the end of a shift... If I could have stayed in emergency medicine, I'd have been fine, believe it or not.

What area of nursing do you work in? How long have you been doing it?

Thanks for the welcome!

oh isnt that cute????

she thinks im a real nurse.
(yor fault dnar)

im not a nurse (but after the last few days at work in my childcare centre i could be - bloody parents who REFUSE to keep sick kids at home and prefer to spread germs to everyone else - and not flus or colds - the evil *put babies in hospital for a week* type germs)

just something dnar started on the old BB because i was the only "girly" on the team.

Don't beleive too much of what you hear Jodie.... I get the blame for a lot around here.... :cool: Good to have another Fem and an active poster at that. (Did I mention you have nice rigs?).







Feel free to share your experiences over in the Linux forum as well Jodie, this crew is slowly comming around to Linux and I need all the help I can get at the moment.... "Your OS will be assimilated.... Resistance is futile....":cool: :cool: :cool:

Hi Jodie,

Welcome to the best team! :D

I've been following your posts, and some of your numbers don't add up. :confused: The only Plll that runs at 1.13G is a Tulatin, which is soley a mobile proc. The closest I can come up with using 162FSB is a Plll 700/100 (not likely) or a Plll 933/133 (7*162=1134). Is this the case? I don't hear Plll and 1.13G used in the same sentance very often. Just wondering. :)

31st July 2001, 13:35
I suppose it's just what different ppl call different CPU's....the Tualatin is available in a server config and will run dual. Here's a snap of a very well respected computer stores CPU listing:

The PIII-1.13 processor was originally shipped in August of 2000, as I remember.

There were some significant problems with the early chips, and they were pulled.

At the time, I was working for partner backed venture, and the stuff we were working on (as far as I can go, probably dancing on my NDA right now) needed clocks rather than through-put (the venue of the Xeon) Best we could get were the new PIII-1.13.

They were somewhat unstable, and were recalled. As we discovered at the time, if you cooled them down and avoided Windows (a timing issue, I believe) you were pretty safe. Anyway, when the Coppermines came out, we swapped to the coppermines, over-clocked them to get the cycles, and threw away the original 1.13

Through a TREMENDOUSLY complex transaction, several ended-up in my hands... They're not all that great, I suppose, and someday I'll replace them. (In fact, I just bought four 1.0Ghz Coppermines last night...)

More than you ever wanted to know?

Dustin
31st July 2001, 14:08
Touché Phil! If it were a Tualatin, she wouldn't be running 162FSB. ;)

Jodie- So it is a Plll 933/133 running at 162FSB, correct? Don't mind me... I'm not trying to interrogate anyone, just getting my numbers straight. :D I get a bit anal when it comes to hardware.

Wow, actually, I wasn't aware of that! I could actually upgrade my original PIII's to PIII coppermine and not lose clocks! How cool is that? Thanks, Phil!

No problem! Me too.

No, it's a liquid cooled (80/20 water/ethyl glycol) 1Ghz running at 162 FSB. Supermicro 1U rackmount, 1Gig RAM. As soon as I find the software for my Jornada (I uninstalled it accidentally), I'll put my HP CF camera card in the Jornada and take pictures for everyone of my lab. First, though, I need to dispose of two weeks worth of Diet Mt. Dew cans... :cool: Also, as I was writing my response to you, one of my dual 1.13's went south. I was reinstalling Linux on it, trying to clean it up. It crashed, I rebooted, it POSTed fine, then crashed, and now it doesn't post. Grrrr. There's quite a few stories (or there was) running around the 'Net about the early 1.13's. Seems they had about 30% with bad microcode is the nearest anyone can figure. We cherry-picked through hundreds, as I remember it. (I wasn't directly involved - I was doing the manglement, errr, management thing. I get to do very little actually engineering these days...)

I'll drop in. We do about 50% of our development in Linux, 30% in Solaris, and the remainder split-up among HP/UX, AIX, Windows CE, J2OS, etc.

[hr]

Sheesh, sooo many inside jokes to learn... Ok, let's see:

We have Dnar who's the board bad boy (as in, blame everything on him), as well as the local linux geek.

Shubles who's the 'team nurse' because it seemed like a femme thing to be. (btw, what do you do for a living?)

Dustin who's the hardware-nazi (check my specs before I open my mouth :D :p )

Tril0byte who's the case modding guy

A few overclockers

A whole bunch of people just diligently crunching away

What have I missed?

Tell you what Jodie, if it turns out you drive an Ason Martin DB5 and drink beer in pints, you'rd gonna get about 50 proposals of marriage ;)

Seriously, I'm curious, how come you chose this G@H group? Not that I'm complaining, but you gotta know that with all your hardweare, you're gonna be welcome in absolutely any team, how come this one?

Competition Yellow Mica RX-7 Twin Turbo, 1993, Petitt Turn Key Terror level 3... (My ex husband is a race car driver... I wanted something small and nice handling that would give his viper a run for the money... He's gone, it remains. Guess true love IS really what it's all about. [grin])

I looked for a team I could make a difference to. If I can actually generate say 3-5% of the total team output, then I'm making a difference to the team. If I joined Picard, then they'd have a better shot of keeping their placement, but not MUCH better. If I join ARS, it's worthless. I want a team that is the same as the startup companies I cofound - fast moving, has fun staff, and has a *real* shot at being number one, but it's going to take effort to get there...

Does that make any sense or am I spouting giberish again? [grin]

and thanks again! (machine seven coming online after a reboot. eight through ten are halfway through reinstalling linux)

Seti@home got boring. When I first started with it, I had a ton of fun tweaking the OS, futzing with software, computing my stats, estimating where I'd be and when, and basically abusing the heck out of my lab. Then I needed to take 50% of it down for another project. Right about the time I was putting it back online for seti I read an article about how seti is has sooo much processing power at this point that it's making worthless multiple passes. It's more than caught up. And I've never really cared about ET anyway. So I went looking for something new and exciting. I was part of the original Bovine project. (My original degrees are in math and comp-sci, I worked on writing encryption algos for years) But you know, who really cares if an unrealistic massively distributed 'machine' can brute-force 56 bit keys in a few days? I know how to build a machine for $200,000 that can exhuast a triple-des keyspace in 48 hours. It's not rocket science... So I skipped that. Then I ran across G@H and F@H and thought: 'no HERE's something I would put my name on!'

An the rest, as they say. . .

Thanks for asking, though! Bet you won't make that mistake again (I'll become known as 'the verbose one' I'm sure...):rolleyes:

It makes a lot of sense, though there's a million WU's between us and fist place, that's a lot of ground to make. We should be good for third at least, but I've a private hope to take second. A lot of the folks in here are passionate about the project, nuses, doctors, genetesists, paramedics, biologists, plus a ton of folks who have a personal reason for being part of it. Plus, a really good team spirit, it's this passion and friendship that will give this team the legs, long after [H] have given up the race. For what it's worth, i think you made a good choice, it's my choice too :D

Thats not entirely true Jodie....You may have heard this team is made up of a few teams, who joined "alt.comp.hardware.overclocking" (ACHO) who were at the time the highest team ranked . Unlike SETI you dont take your stats with you when you change teams, so their true stats are a bit higher.
Check out Dyyryaths (Ars stats god) stats page (http://www.zerothelement.com/distributed/genome/site-collective/index-1.shtml) which we have all agreed would be a fairer representation of true standings in the team.:)

Hey! I like that page!

Ok, 1158 I guess is the applied number, whereas mine is at 300. I'll work with that! ("Repeat after me, I'm doing it for the science")

The numbers are fun, though. I'm not living-up to my potential, though... Only 3.23% of the collective's output in the last 24hrs. (And I'm sure there's people out there with a ton of nonet going that lowers that...)

I'll be out of town for two days, bringing one of my machines with me, (on of the fast ones, unfortunately), but I'll try to put my last four machines online before I leave - if I have time...

It's fun being here so early, compared to when I joined Seti...

Thanks for the pointer!:D

Hi Jodie just wondering as you are dropping the Seti side of things, did you belong to a Seti Group?

Cause if not, why not let those seti units of yours you have crunched, live a comfortable retirement at the SkzDaLimit group .....many members of this group still crunch for Skz ,and i know you and your units would be made most welcomed....... :D :D
