I don't know if VirtualBox has built-in ramdisk capability, but that would be the easy way to it. Of course, it would set a larger minimum memory requirement, but you need something to play in this game anyway.

hristo_h_m,
We have been working on this project for over five years now. Everything you mention above has been discussed and rehashed ad infinitum. The "King's men" have responded and have explained and have joined in the discussions. This project is what it is. Lot's of members have quit in disgust and anger after not being able to effect change in this project. You will not get much sympathy, only time worn and patient explanations.

The thing I find most annoying in this community is a Johnny-come-lately-to-the-party who trolls into the forums espousing demands, and most often one who has failed to do any research in the forums for past information. The truly special ones toss insults right and left like a MAC-10 that is out of control. They usually don't even deserve a single response, never mind a thread.

The really annoying ones throw in errors (l**s), such as suggesting that a Q9450 is equivalent ("equal performance and thermal range") to a Q6600 chip when Passmark clearly states that the Q9450 is 27% faster and has a 10% better TDP.

This example is one of the worst. a member for nearly 7 years who has begrudgingly devoted the time and effort to contribute about .25 work units per day, and now threatens to quit. Does it cover it if I say 'will be sadly missed' or am I overdoing it? Guess what we are waiting for?

I was thinking to not post this but anyway this is my opinion and it is opened to discussion.

All processing tasks until now from mentioned comp (but who knows maybe this is true for the last five years) are for molecules which are not charged. You see, the current is a flow of electrons, which solar cell need to provide.
It can happen that one molecule looks dumb but when this molecule is integrated in suitable matrix the whole thing can rocks, because solar cell is not just molecule but solid state device. There is not molecular orbital anymore but solid states, bands and ... read the books. As you see this is a simple argument.

Another simple argument. The project screens organic molecules for the light to energy transform. I think that the end result of this project would be the very famous molecule which gives color of the green plants. But I think that this project is very far from this yet. Someone knows the efficiency of this conversion?

So what is going on. Q-chem Inc is commercial software which for now using free resources to tunning his code to produce something that has meaningful output. That's all.

I think this is enough for the big name of this project which someone are proud that it is running for five yards. I can assure you that for the whole ten yards there will be no difference between someone with 1 wu at month and another with 100 wu per day and badges and so on and so forth.

Oh, I would miss to reply to the second lieutenant about why posting here my so called first post.

Johnny is very calm person, in most cases he feels nothing. He feels nothing for seconds and nothing for unix. But he does laughs at all to see you picking first things first. So he used given link to facebook where everybody can see happy smiling people. These people have access to some big computing nodes so called mainframe and they shines. But desktops are very different from nodes, and smiling happy people not want to massively rewrite software to fit desktops so they make here and there patches. And more importantly they are reluctant to give openness to the source code to the point that they are ready to lose many desktops but not to do what is need to be done.

So let me ask you what to discuss with such people. They already made their minds. And that they not responded to bugs can be understood easily from this point of view. And why they don't publish gross time for running the project instead the net time? So everybody see for itself.

And you? You volunteers, will fight long and hard for a bit of colored ribbon.


And to finish. Most good Q6600 are overclocked, good chips are cold chips. G0 stepping are of particular interest... As everybody knows ( it means if you don't it is meaningless to continue the read) Every E2140 run at 333 the math gives 2666 ~ Q9450. The whole line of core processors depends very nonius from the size of the L2 cache because they are very aggressive in prefetching.

These are things around, comrades.
