Congrats on becoming Advanced 7cures
---------------------------------------- Only (he says) 2 years short! Movieman I'd love to see 4 WU's being crunched at the same time. Sek that should be easily do-able next week after the sleepy new year. Come on folks Let's crunch   |

A monster..I'm hosting it but the comitment to it is all his. He's the brains, I'm just the mechanic that built it. |

Is it running some awesome database engine?
----------------------------------------A box like that surely isn't built just to crunch  Anyway I discovered this through stumbleupon http://www.thesongoftheday.com/index.cgi?_d=010807 Enjoy It's a web head anthem |

God's truth on that. We're still working to see what it will max out at stable but I think somewhere between 3270-3420 is what we'll wind up with. And there are 2 of them here except that one has only one Clovertown in it..They are hard to come by at any price I'd pay..$1500.00 retail each for the cpu's. To put this box in perspective, last night I inched it up to 3270mhz and ran cinebench 9.5, the multicpu rendering test on it. Scored a 2545..The only score higher that I can find on the net was done by a 8cpu-16 core Opty 880 and he got 2646.. That test is all cpu power and to compare, one of the guys at XS ran a quad core Kentsfield at almost 5000mhz on LN2 and got 2526.. |

Movieman you couldn't get a copy of the messages created by the CPU Benchmarks in BOINC could you?
----------------------------------------Just for comparison with a Core 2 Duo and some old Barton's  I'm building something that might be requiring that kind of number crunching power so you never know I might get there one day but for the moment it would be nice to dream Dave |
