Re: Gold Silver Bronze

I put a couple of new computers to work. It's a few old ones that put out most of the heat.
The 12 thread machine died from a power surge or lightning hit, so had to go to the shop.
As it turned out, the hard drive was in a coma, so it was replaced with a 1 Tb solid state drive.

I don't want to send money to a charity, just so they can ask for more money. This is an actual scientific effort.

I have one of my laptops set to run at 50% power to keep the heat down, as well as an old desktop runninig at 60% power to keep the fans quiet.

Look at the BOINC utility on that particular machine.

Tools / Processor Usage / Use at most [ 50% ] CPU time

(or whatever you want)

It might be Tasks / Computing for a different BOINC release.

Re: Gold Silver Bronze

I am staying busy with a few more threads online.

Fortunately there are a few projects running, and some others are waiting for more data to run.

Re: Gold Silver Bronze

The team records took a huge jump today. Did someone return from holiday? Maybe it is just the betas since the validator was turned off for awhle and all hit at once.

Re: Gold Silver Bronze

Ding ding ding!!! I think you've hit the nail on the head there, I had just under 6 days worth of Beta units waiting to validate that all went through yesterday afternoon (UK time). My figures show I validated just over 11 days on Friday, and about 25.5 days yesterday. My daily average is about 17 days, so all balances out in the end. I'm still 92 days short of a sapphire badge for Beta though. Jealous of widdershins.
