I\'m still hanging in there with this one!
http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=7209853

6 days from previous trickle to the one today - just one more trickle to go. (phew!)


WU finished and returned at lunchtime UTC today 19/02/2008.
Hope the results are useful to the scientists!

Thanks, John. If your model does make it to completion I\'ll be interested to see its graphs.


Almost 24 hours on from first post yesterday and it\'s now 97.22% complete.
At this rate, it\'ll be 10 days + to completion.
I\'ll see this one through!

Sorry for delay in reply -

R for rainfall gives a static pastel green globe.
P for pressure gives a static black globe.
Both have white outlines for land.

As I said to Les earlier, I don\'t normally watch the graphics.....

[EDIT]
Computer 827039 may have hit the same problem as myself - no trickle since early hours of this morning....

Thanks Les!
Apart from myself, there\'s two duo cores and a quad core (and a Celeron!) also crunching this WU.
I\'ll give it a few more days, see what happens. If and when the other quad/duo results come in, I\'ll abort.

Another slow iceworld.

http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/result.php?resultid=7209853

Timestep 241564 of 259248 - 97.73% complete. ( 0.255% more than 24 hours ago)

CPU time = 296:31 hrs, 6:53 to completion.

1.40 sec/TS.

Globe is blue.

Intel Q6600 Quad, never overclocked.

Should I keep going?

Model date is 23/11/2064 so it looks as if I\'m going to have a verrrry chilly 109th birthday on the 24th!

Just had a look at the front page. Yes, it is definitely a lot \'cleaner\' and less confusing than the one I remember.

Well done!

Les - you are a star!
I don\'t usually run the graphics (waste of cycles!) but you are correct; I do have an \'ice-world\'.
This is the first time I\'ve had one of these, probably not the last.

Many thanks from an honorary Aussie born and bred in the UK....
(when are you going to join us, Les?)

This is happening to me too.

Also -
I have a WU on my quad which is showing some strange (?) behaviour -
CPU time is 270 hrs and rising, time to completion is 7 hrs and static. The % complete is very slowly rising, about .01% per hour, currently at 97.5%.

Any ideas, anyone or am I worrying un-necessarily?

Thank you Zelvuska and the Czech National Team for the Czech translation.
(Zelvuska had previously said he may be able to help - that was over a week ago)
Great work and well worth the wait!

Great work from Jamin (BOINK.SK) who crunches too many projects to mention! Thanks for translating into Polish!

As part of the response to my appeal, I received the following PM from another cruncher -

Howdy John!

I see that you\'re getting a good response for translators.

Once they are done with your site, please see if they\'d consider helping out Chris Caldwell and his Prime Pages site. Currently, the site has English, Spanish, Persian, and French.

Good Luck with getting more languages!
John


Anyone interested?

A huge thank you to Bull_PT of team BOINCstats who is crunching for SETI.
Bull has very kindly provided a Portuguese translation. Any more volunteers?

Do you have a second language? (not English or German)

If so, you could help by becoming a translator for one of the BOINC stats sites -

Have a look at the charts and layout.

Please contact Markus by sending a PM. ( register for the forum 1st )

Calling all members of BOINC@AUSTRALIA!

You may be aware that Aussie Assault 7 is due to begin (on 01 June) and will run until 14 June.
The target is WCG - World Community Grid. This project actually crunches four separate causes:-
1) Fight Aids at home
2) Genome comparison
3) Human Proteome folding
4) Help cure Muscular Dystrophy

WCG is slightly different to the other BOINC projects. If you have any difficulty attaching, check the team forum.
Help is available!

Any other \'homeless\' crunchers out there who would like to join in the fun, feel free - we are the No.1 Australian team,
currently in 18th position Combined Boinc World ranking.
Visit the team forum here for more details about the team.

I think John, who\'s a wealthy Insurance Executive 8O and part time spy ;), should buy another 512M stick of RAM.


Definitely not wealthy! I\'ll have to put in a bit of overtime to fund a RAM upgrade.
This is the 3rd time I\'ve had the problem of \'not enough memory\' -
1st - I couldn\'t do SAP (when it was still going)
2nd - Some of the WCG WUs need 1G to run.
3rd - now I can\'t run CPDN alongside other projects as I have done in the past.

Looking on the positive side though - this old machine of mine hasn\'t done too badly. I\'ll do the upgrade as a reward for when it passes the quarter million credits......
