273 ppd...wtf?!

[Th3 F4ll3n P1mp]

How is it possible that I only get 273 ppd? I have a part time Q6700 @ 3.6 running for 32 and a 24/7 E2160 @ 2.8 ghz...something's wrong here...

Are you running the SMP client, or the 5.04 client?

[Th3 F4ll3n P1mp]

5.03 graphical. I gotta switch to the SMP asap lol, but still, it shouldnt be that low.

Would this be you?

You've turned in 2 p45xx (84 pointers) Ambers in the last 24 hours, and nothing on 5-31 and 6-01. How part time is the quad? How many instances are you running? Assuming its running 4 Ambers, it should make about 30 points per hour. C2Ds and C2Qs probably should be configured to avoid Ambers, which do not use SSE. One of the primary improvements in the C2D/Qs is the ability to process 2 SSE instructions per clock cycle (twice the capability of the benchmark P4), so running a WU, even a bonus WU, that doen't take advantage of this improved performance is going to give relatively poor performance. Configure for Big WU with advanced methods off.

Yeah, thats me. The quad runs all afternoon when I am back from school and sometimes 24/7. I turn it on at 2:40 pm and shut it off around 10:40 pm. Still a good 6 hours right there though...running 1 instance of the client per pc. Should I run more?

[ChasR]

If you're running 5.03, you can only run one instance per machine and your production is about right.

If you're running 5.03, you can only run one instance per machine and your production is about right.5.03 graphical^ that is the issue ;). Why are you not running the SMP version?

[jonspd]

smp FTW

[Th3 F4ll3n P1mp]

Ok, switching to SMP right now...I knew graphical was crappy, but not that crappy.

[jonspd]

smp on a opty 170 will = about 3-4x 273ppd avg your seeing on the graphical.

[Th3 F4ll3n P1mp]

Ho...ly...crap! Lol, thats pure amazing...where can I download the smp?

[jonspd]

I believe below or above where you got the graphical :D

also be sure to follow the instructions.

[Th3 F4ll3n P1mp]

Oh lmfao, ok. Btw, what program can I use to put the console into the tray? Has to be free! :bang head

[Th3 F4ll3n P1mp]

I am now using the SMP optimized client, and trayit to put it to tray. Thanks for the help guys.
