Title says it all... I think I need a :beer: :beer:

On another note, I think I may have discovered a S@H slowdown (at least for me): MBM 5. I do not know if it is due to the fresh install of Win2k I now have or if it is due to MBM 5, but at stock, I noticed my WU crunched 3.5%/hour faster without MBM 5 on. I'm going to download the benchmark WU and try it out... Ill post the results here later.

First congratulations on reaching your first milestone! I believe that is the first cert level so enjoy your official cert when that last unit is uploaded! :)

MBM might well slow down seti if it is polling for your system stats alot. Running the test will show for sure.

Congrats on 150 :D

I don't know exactly how much mbm slows things down- but it does.
Everything running does. For competitive benches I turn off everything that is not vital- services, video resolution etc.
My rough comparison on my fastest rig is between 5 and 10 minutes slower for normal operation.

It took 1 minute, 4 seconds longer to complete the WU with MBM running. Settings on MBM were to update every 3 seconds, with a tray icon displaying CPU usage and temp. Not the 3.5% more (maybe it depends on the WU) I had originally stated, but still nonetheless, slower with it on.

The system is:

MSI K7T Turbo2
AMD Athlon TBird 1.33 GHz @ 1.5 GHz (10x150, core voltage 1.825)
512 MB generic ram (two sticks)
MBM 5.2.0.0 (used only during the with MBM test)

Hope this helps a little.

EDIT: I have the result.sah files if anyone wants them.

Here are the results:
