Hello again old friends

TBonZTBonZ Ottawa, ON Icrontian
in Folding@Home
I decided to start contributing to #93 again after a looooong hiatus.

One question though and because I'm way out of the loop, how the hell is Leo pulling off 1.5 mill per day on just 3 clients??? Ridiculous!!!

    CPU cores as far as the eye can see. When you switch to quad socket motherboards the sky is no longer the limit because you are the sky.

    Lessee, last I heard Leo had 16 cores folding for one client. One box, Xeon CPUs or AMD CPUs--I THINK Leo has Xeons, could be wrong.

    Edit: AND he is getting high-value beta WUs with his high-core box.

    Welcome back Tbonz! He's using dual-opterons.
    Perhaps something else to go alone with it idunno. I'm sure he will chime-in, he usually does.

    Ahhh ok and that makes sense for sure. Aside from Leo and Tushon, I'm in everyone's rear-view but not for long. ;)

    It's great to hear from you guys. :)

    He's been away since June, though it would be nice to hear from him again! @Leonardo come hither

    He's using 4P G34s, which falls right in line with my own single 4P box production (~300k PPD by itself).

    I see you back there. 195 days 'til I'm in your rear-view according to EO future production estimate of the moment. Good to have you back.

    What is your Folding arsenal TbonZ?

    Hi all! Just curious if anyone know when we started folding? I'm guessing between 10-15years ago?

    @lsevald !!!!

    Man, it's so good to see you here!

  • lsevaldlsevald Norway Icrontian

    Thanks man! It's really good to see you guys too! Still going strong ;)

  • LincLinc Bard Detroit, MI Icrontian

    Howdy @lsevald! :D I started in late 2002, so I'd guess around 2001 or so.

    You guys got me curious! I found a reference to Icrontic folding from Oct 2001. Our team can't be more than a few months older than that. Team 64 started in May 2001 and they got a lower team number than us :)
