you only set that high if your going to do work units

and then it only works when your doing p-1 factoring

it completely reams you computer though if you set it to 225 beucase it reeeeeeeeeallly uses all 225 so it leaves you comptuer with like 31 ram

if you want a work unit to try it out pm me

if you look in the advanced drop down in the file menu it will say password (password=9876) it will let you adjust the thead prority( 1-10) and set it to start at bootup and also hide the icon form anyone.



i belive the newer version has a benchmark program as well.

Just went and checked and yes there is a start at boot option. As for hiding it, it is always my luck I can't get it back when I want to shut it down and it is not listed in the start menu. It has been running since I got up and I am 46% done on whatever it is doing.:D

Interesting note. Was watching it last night and the time required to complete a cycle is very helpful in oc. It shows the time used to the thousandth of a second and the effect of heat can be seen in real time.

you can set it to prority 10 so it doesnt take crap from any other program

that gives you a good line of feed back but it delays your system hardcore

what does your screen say i can tell you what test your running

Just a minute, let me check.
Ok, factoring M18267001 to 2^65. Make sense to you? Version 21.4 but do not see a priority setting.
