Well, here's a progress report on how the SMx Project is doing.
SM1 - 535.30 points/week, 13,296.50 points total
SM2 - 518.80 points/week, 16,483.10 points total
SM3 - 144.40 points/week, 7,737.90 points total
SM4 - 352.50 points/week, 13,999.10 points total
SM5 - 162.80 points/week, 6,008.16 points total
SM6 - 152.80 points/week, 8,147.41 points total
SM7 - 300.78 points/week, 8,459.31 points total
SM8 - 197.18 points/week, 8,894.76 points total
SM9 - 209.38 points/week, 8,142.35 points total
SM10 - 89.49 points/week, 4,302.04 points total
SM11 - 363.60 points/week, 14,256.90 points total
SM12 - 102.90 points/week, 2,787.86 points total
SM13 - 232.55 points/week, 6,632.44 points total
SM14 - 102.80 points/week, 5,077.53 points total
SM15 - 228.86 point/week, 2,818.83 points total
SM16 - 496.48 points/week, 4,470.67 points total
SM17 - 276.50 points/week, 3,017.27 points total
SM18 - 395.57 points/week, 2,861.73 points total
SM19 - 75.30 points/week, 791.46 points total
We have 2 rigs turning in over 500 points/week this time, SM1 and SM2, with SM16 just a smidgen behind 500 points/week. You guys really have those machines humming.
In the 300-500 point/week category we have SM4, SM7, SM11,SM16(as I mentioned before;) ) and SM18. That is some great production guys, keep it up.
In the 200-299 point range, we have SM9, SM13,SM15 and SM17. Great, staedy production from those boxen, you all.
In the 100-199 points/week range we have SM3, SM5, SM8, SM12 and SM14.
In the 0-99 range, we have the following rigs:SM10 and SM19.
SM17 is running 100% CPU all day and hasn't had downtime except for power outages, somehow it still won't get over ~280 points / week running 3.24 -forceasm advmethods on Linux on a XP1600+. Its an absolute minimalist debian install so absolutely nothing (except the odd cron job to check for updates) is stealing cpu time. I've now switched to 3.25 but no speed improvement is discernable. We'll see what happens after a couple of weeks.
No luck overclocking as of yet (FSB refuses to go higher although I know the ram can do it on other boards) I'd rather not unlock the multis of someone else's proc (its a pala). I know SM18 has similar specs, any hints on how you're doing ~30% more than me per week or is that an overclock?
I have a confession to make, IC16 isn’t IC16. It is a stand in that I am running for the time being until I have the time / money to get it back and running again. It is temporarily a P4 2.5ghz . I hope to have IC16 running again as soon as I can.
CaffeineMe had this to say It's running 3.25, and has -forceasm and -advmethods set to run. What else can I do?
Is that mobo a Gigabyte 7ZXE mobo? I just downloaded the manual for that board and there looks to be no overclocking features whatsoever in bios, not even fsb speeds.:( It looks like the only way to overclock it is to go download the latest version of Easy Tune from Gigabyte and try overclocking with that windows utility of theirs.
If that mobo is a GA-7ZX, then I think your fsb overclocking options are pretty poor as that is an original KT133 board, which usually can't run over about 112 fsb speed. There is a jumper block section on the mobo that will give you some limited fsb speed options though.
If you are serious about maximizing that rig's output, we need to know the exact model number and revision number of the board, to see which one it is and what procs it can support.:) It looks like Gigabyte came out with several different variations of the same board, with both KT133 and KT133A chipsets.
it always has been on -advmethods and -forceasm, even still I counted up and its got 8 tinkers (out of 60 WU) since it started. I believe it got this one while there was a server outage monday.

16 should be up now that Nec is back.

Keep them up and running. Fulfill your duties as an SMx host.
Thats only like 5-6 WUs a week. I guess thats about right then.

I was away on my honeymoon and IC1 was off. I don't know how it turned in a WU while I was away.
Well wait you said Linux, thats your problem. Linux is slow anyway.

I took a quick look tonight and it wasn't pretty.:( Several rigs aren't doing much of anything or not producing at all.:(
