Survey: How many active procs do you have?

[ColdMiser]

I just got mine up to 11. None of them fall into the "slow machine" category.

Edit: make that 13

[hooziewhatsit]

I had three, but on one of them it slowed my friends' comp down too much, so he took it off. Right now I just have 2 proc's folding for us

fold on!

[SickBoy]

4 right now, I think. 2 P3 Xeon 550's, a Duron 700 and a TBird 1 GHz. Soon I'll have a P166 going on Yatta.

SB

Edit: the P166 is up on Yatta. I started it folding last night around 8pm and when I checked it this morning it had done 7 frames on a NativeVillin. At this rate I don't think it'll make the six day limit.

[muddocktor]

I presently have 4, the ones listed in my sig. By this weekend I plan to have my pelt/wc P3 1.26S up and running at know knows what speed :D and maybe a Celeron 433. BTW, these are all my rigs.

Edit: I have added another P3 rig to my bunch. I have the P3 rig listed in my sig as being tested. That makes a total of 3850 mhz Intel and 1950 mhz AMD.

[Wega!]

Only one.... Sorry I'll try to get som more ASAP...

[Kendan]

I have three under my name (AMD 1.493, P3 500, P4 1.4).

And my little p200MMX underYatta

Fold on!!!

[Wyno]

I am supposed to have 2 but it only shows one. I will get it figured out, I hope.

How did you install on your secong rig? If you just copied the FAH folder and moved it over then it will only show one processor because it has the same id number. To fix just uninstall both and upgrade to the newest ver. on both or just on one and it should be fine. The newest ver. is 2.17 although it is still called a beta. you can find it here!!! (http://folding.stanford.edu/beta/) . Hope this helps. Fold on!!!

Well, my friend and I (ClaytonComp) currently have 5 machines under our name (Gandalf).

Athlon - 1.4
Athlon - 1.2 @ 1.4
P3 - 733 @ 742 (:D)
Celeron - 333
P2 - 233

None of thse are 24.7, but every little bit counts!

And we are currently building a couple more rigs!

:D

FOLD ON!

[The Coolest]

I have 2, the ones in my sig. I'm now testing the Duron at 1056 b4 it was 1048, but every MHz counts I think b4 it wouldn't do 1056 stable, but after I think more than 500h burn in, its now stable.

[Ploaf]

I think I have 9. 3 or 4 of them are elsewhere and I know that some are returning work but I can't be completely sure about 1 of them although every so often another active cpu crops up.

[Mr B]

ATM, one. :(

The "sig" below, explains it all...

[scoobiedoo]

I have 7 right now, 6 at home and 1 at work.

:burn:

[BBigJ]

I have five or six. I have five permanant members, and I steal cpu time from work at night from any extra machine that isn't being used. It isn't much, but it helps.

[Malakai]

i only have 1 right now, but after i get my xp1800+ and some crucial ram, im either gonna sell the CPU and ram i have now or slap a second system together(i have loads of parts sittin around). then ill have, u guessed it, 2:)

[Newbie_Doo]

right now 5 CPUs, more on the way. See sig:

[TT120]

Just 2 for me 24/7, both are birds @ 1550

[KILLorBE]

only one, PIII600@888 24/7.
I should have one more soon (still not sure...P4...Tbird...XP....PIII-S....Tualeron).

Maybe a 486 100MHz overdrive @ 150? if that helps (and if I can get it to work). I'm gonna fix it anyway (server:p ).
I also have a PI 150, maybe I can OC it, but I doubt it, its a Packard Hell (with graphics problems, integrated Vcard doesn't like anything higher than 640*480 16bit, and I can't disable it:mad: ).
Never mind my Compaq 486 33MHz, but if you think it helps I'll get a hub.:beer:

[SickBoy]

Anything less than a Pentium 150 or 166 is too slow I think.

I have seen cheap slot 1 and super 7 boards on ebay though, like $25 or less. if you want to pirate the small HD and the video from those 486 boxes you could build them into folders.

BTW.... anyone who needs small HDD's or old video cards, there's a place about 5 blocks from my house that's got bins upon bins of them. Just let me know and I can ship some out to you if you need 'em.

What do you mean one crops up? Is there a way to check?

On the stats page at the official folding@home site when you check your individual stats page it will say how many cpu's you have in the box at the top of the page. All it really is is how many user id's you have that have turned in work during that week. Occasionally I see an extra one show up which means that one box that I set the client up on is turning in work, but I rarely have access to it and can't tell what it's doing most of the time. I recently installed an updated version of the client on that system and it seems to be showing up regularly now. I think the old client was tossing out work every time the system was shut down and restarted which happens frequently on that system.

[Gandalf]

OH WOW!!

It says I have 7 active processors!!

Cool, I guess I must have installed it on more than I can remember.....

Nd how come this NORGS guy from oc australia has over 20,000 WU's but only 2 active processors?

[Ploaf]

He set up the clients incorrectly. He has the same user id for almost all of his systems. This is probably as a result of setting the client up on one system and copying the directory and pasting the directory on all several hundred of the other machines he set up. It made setup much easier, but having one user ID for all of those systems is probably bad for the project. If you ever do this then you can set up one client and delete the userid from the client.cfg and then copy the directory or perform the setup without allowing the client to connect until after you copy the directory. It will be just as fast to set up all of those systems and it will allow each client to grab its own user id when it starts, thus keeping everything on the server end working as it should.

[Gandalf]

Will this effect his WU output?

And why would this be bad for the project? (Not trying to sound rude)

[Ploaf]

He will get credit for all of the work done.
The reason that it's bad for the project is due to the way the project works. It's progressive by design, which means that the work we do tomorrow is determined by the work that we do today. The servers use the user id to determine which work was sent out and returned. When it sends out work to a client it records the work that was sent and it waits for its return. If the same user id requests work again without having returned anything then the server will assume that the work was not completed and will reassign it, either to the same user id or another user id. It will then expect the work to come from the reassigned user id instead. In this case there are literally hundreds of machines requesting work as a single client before anything gets returned to the server. The server will then have to reassign all of that work to other clients with different id's. In all likelihood the results being sent in from all of those machines, while being credited as completed wu's, are probably getting tossed out and sent to someone who has the client configured correctly. It just slows everything down to have to discard and reassign all of that work. I believe that Kendan produced an article from the mailing list that asks people to not set multiple clients with the same user id because of this.

[Gator]

I have 6 computers, with a total of 7 processors, as listed in my sig below. Most of them are running the V2.17 console version, with the SMP box running two copies of the console app in separate directories with "-local" switch specified:

C:\FAHTASK1 and C:\FAHTASK2

All of them have different "ID" values, the SMP system actually has two "ID" values, one for each of the two folding directories. :beer:

[Wega!]

OMG! I just saw that I have linked to this post! :eek: Sorry! I wanted to link to another post in Alternative modding.... Sorry :beer:

[Shadow ÒÓ]

5, and will be adding one as soon as I get DDR memory. Only one is slow (P III 350) and the rest are very respectable. I'll be adding the slow one to team Yatta.

[Gandalf]

It says that i have 7, but does that onclude the Other "Gandalf" from overclocker australia?

LOL. gotta stop folding for the aussie team !!!!! :D
Getting help in the stats eh? j/k
WIth the same username I would say that is probably what it is.

100% OC.com for me :D

[Tithulta]

I have 3 active cpu's one of which is a true turtle (see bottom machine in signature)

Sorry I stopped folding for you guys I still consider you guys home. Just personally felt I needed my own team. Still just me folding, but eventually I'll gather other christians into the "other" Fold ;)

*really needs to quite being lazy and learn a bit of web building for his own Folding site* I keep an eye on you guys though should someone start threatening your 3rd place than I'll return to defend my HOME.

If any are interested in watching my team climb the chart it's team 662
Crusaders for Christ..currently in 243rd place and climbing daily...though a team or two have blazed by me...but only 2 so far.

[ColdMiser]

Nobody will threaten our position as long as I have anything to say about it. Er...um..fold about it?

Three, pressing with pride. Fold On!

[donny_paycheck]

See signature.....the Xeons will be folding soon, just need to get them on the LAN here! Everything else is running now.

Nice farm you got there!

Antway I have just added a P2 266MHz. It's cool, I can run this thing without active cooling. There is only a HS from a old 486 CPU and that enough to keep it running, no fans is needed! :D

[Trap]

Just joined..currently folding on two machines:
................................
C633@800MHz
PIII933@1.085GHz
