View Full Version : Linux CUDA for Fermi now available
In case anyone has been waiting for this, it is now available and discussed at http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=62682.
At present I'm crunching Rosetta on all four cores and SETI on a GTX 460. :D

I wouldn't sweat the $30 just yet. The guy that did the work made it clear that this is in no way optimized for Fermi, but only that it produces results. He seemed to imply that that the folks doing the Windows port are doing some optimizing as well. I'm running about 25 minutes per WU, but I'm also running all four CPU cores on Rosetta so the GPU is not fully utilized. Memory utilization is not usually more than about 30% so once my RAC settles, I may try running two instances of the GPU task.
