OK, thanks for the responses Rob & Sgt. Joe. So the magic batch number, 17500, is still holding as far as anybody knows.

By and large it 'appears' as if the '5 hour tuning' has been kicking in... light blue line: http://bit.ly/WCGMCM1 , but, the tendency seems to be staying closer to an average of 6 hours, or after a few months of flatlining runtimes it's back to the Six Flags roller coaster. We'll know in a week or two more ;D

Hi Everyone:
For the time being the number of batches is going to remain the same as the original estimate. We've now entered a phase where the future batches are based on results of current/past batches so it's challenging to predict with great accuracy the final endpoint. It may turn out that the project might run slightly shorter or longer than expected. We continue to try and normalize the run times as each set of batches from here on out is going to be slightly different from the preceding one. So, still Six Flags, but hopefully the kid's ride. |

Thanks for the clarification. I will continue with my extrapolations, but if I get way out of whack , please let us know and I will do my best to adjust accordingly. Whether they are large or small we will crunch them all. Cheers

Hey Sarge,
----------------------------------------Wanna take a punt on how much your estimates will change once there is an influx of folks that currently run FightAIDS@Home? The subject came up on our team and there was this thought from Mumak: Now that FAAH ends soon, I believe a significant amount of power (a lot of machines running all projects using default settings) will switch to other projects: OET1 (which is run at low priority, so we can't expect a large gain), CEP2 (which is a special feed, so again no large gain expected), UGM and MCM Unless the priority of OET1 is changed then 50% of those currently engaged on FA@H seem likely to move to MCM (perhaps automatically if on default settings) ![]() |

Give me a little time to think about it and I will offer my opinion. Cheers

Once FAHV ends or I get my 100 year badge, which ever occurs first, I'll be moving 157 threads to MCM.... I'm currently 100% FAHV.

I am sure you have done the maths every 2.41 days you return a year worth of work. Look forward to you joining this project ![]() |

On redistribution, too many unknowns to include the summer lull effect [schools out] and new projects [?], to guess where contributions will be shifting. This is how the shares were over the past 53 weeks: http://bit.ly/WCGCPY

I can reach my goal, based on the current estimate, without adding cores (in summer) but Rob's chart supports my theory of actual completion being in the first half of October.
