Mini-Crunch 19th - 21st Jan 2007
Right well the voting for the team crunch is due to come to a end Saturday 13th January.
The project to be crunched looks like it will be Einstein@Home if Einstein is down at the time then the back-up project will be the next one down the list so at the moment SETI Beta/Astropulse.
The crunch is due to start 19th January and will end 21st January.
The aim is just to pull in as many credits as we possibly can do as a team for Einstein@Home or the next available project if Einstein is off-line.
All team members need to do is suspend all other projects to stop the WU's from been processed and allow Einstein full access to BOINC for the crunch.
Simple as that (hope thats OK for all )

It's not a problem.....UBT - The Prof.... wrote:Already running cache down in preperation for the start... .. .
Einstein is one of my favorite projects, so I hope its this one.
Don't have Seti on my system (shock, horror)
Suppose I could put it on, but would prefer that I don't
And it's the SETI Beta/Astropulse project, not the main SETI@home project....and the aim of the Crunch is simply to catch up with teams ahead of us.....and to use the resource of lots of members to generate some "Team spirit", to leap up the rankings and put us in a better position.
Oh, and to help the project of course...!
If Einstein is down and no work is available, (and you're not keen on SETI) just crunch for your preferred projects, as you would normally.

Re: January Mini-Crunch 19th - 21st Jan 2007
I would just add the following:UBT - Halifax--lad wrote:All team members need to do is suspend all other projects to stop the WU's from been processed and allow Einstein full access to BOINC for the crunch.
If you are suspending any WU's (for other projects) only suspend those that have a completion date AFTER the crunch is finished. No point suspending WU's where the completion date is BEFORE or DURING the Crunch, as you'll lose any credit if it gets uploaded after it's completion date....!
And if you want to start crunching for Einstein early, you can...and likewise, you don't have to stop when the crunch officially finishes.
All crunches start at midnight and end at midnight - in this case, the Crunch is from Friday 19th at midnight, until Sunday 21st at midnight. This gives us a total of 48 hours.

Tim
Mini Crunch
Well glad you said that because i have already done that without checking team forum. (sorry)
I checked the status of Einstein's server page and found that there was only 6% WU remaining.
So i am trying to gain more credit's with Einstein, due to CP taking all of my time.
Hope it is OK because i have started ...1 ..2 .3 .. GO
(Ps.... think i am going to try a get a score board like what all you have)
(Pps.... how do i do that please PM me)
(Thats better)

What sort of scoreboard?Naon wrote: (Ps.... think i am going to try a get a score board like what all you have)

If you mean the User of the Day, then it's easy....
The code is this:
Code: Select all
http://myboinc.com/sigUOTD.php/cpid:0e748ca75bf3cb48ae14f70e18aa17fb/.png
with your own CPID
But you have TWO CPID's, which I found are these:
d00d935030f6be1458e3f822f686f7e5
and
38f90446f675142ce697c8d349f7921a
(look here: http://www.boincsynergy.com/stats/index ... earchteam= )
and if you click on the small purple image in the 4th column you will see your profile - some of these need to be edited as they are wrong - you don't need to include the "http://" in the team link - which is why it appears twice - and SETI and Rosetta don't have images.....!)
(Also - Make sure ALL your projects use the SAME email address so that all your projects combine....)
So, YOUR code is:
Code: Select all
http://myboinc.com/sigUOTD.php/cpid:d00d935030f6be1458e3f822f686f7e5/.png
If you don't have any UOTD day awards yet, then you need to ensure each of your products has a profile entered into every project account you have AND you must add a nice image to go with it....then you have a chance to get a UOTD award...!

(On re-reading the thread, it's coz I saw the 13th Jan date from Halifax - this was the END of the voting, not the START of the Crunch :oops: )

Don't forget 5 days to go so start working your caches of WU's down now if you have any non-Einstein WU's on BOINC, that way you can get more Einstein WU's done during the crunch
URL for Einstein http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/
Just in case Einstein goes wrong SETI BETA / Astropulse came as runner up URL is http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu/beta/
And in the event that is down then just choose a project you think needs some help.

The next official Crunch will be sometime late in February.
The actual project that will be the beneficiary, has yet to be decided upon - we usually have a vote and the project that has the most votes, will be chosen (and assuming the project is online and the WU's are short enough...!)
And in the meantime, you could always join the "UBT Sneaky Club" - use the search button above to find this phrase elsewhere on the forum...

I'd like to participate in the mini crunch but have been unable to hook up with Einstien so I'm assuming it's down at the moment, if so when will it be announced that it will be seti?
Also, I've just set up boinc on my newly rebuilt system with a Prescott 3.0 with HT, I just added Seti@home to it just to check all is ok and it is running 2 instances of seti, but on checking Task manager both instances are just running on one half of the cpu.
My question is, do I need to install another copy of Boinc to another folder to use the other half? as I would like to suspend Folding@home and use all available cycles for the mini crunch.
BTW, I know the second choice is the seti beta and not seti@home and will sign up for it once I get this sorted.
Many thanks
Gary

What you should see on a single CPU HT machine running windows is 2 seti processes each using 50%.Rockinfroggi wrote:Also, I've just set up boinc on my newly rebuilt system with a Prescott 3.0 with HT, I just added Seti@home to it just to check all is ok and it is running 2 instances of seti, but on checking Task manager both instances are just running on one half of the cpu.
The 50% is 50% of total CPU not individual CPU. ie someone lucky enough to have a quad core would see 4x25%, single core would be 1x100% etc
So I think you're ok

That's right, Folding is not a boinc project though I understand it may eventually become one, I'm loathed to stop folding for them though as it was through this that I was introduced to boinc but from time to time I'm happy to stop folding as for the mini crunch to help raise UK Boincs standings in the stats.

Couldn't see any app_info.xml-file in the project folder, does that mean I'm good to go? and what do those files relate tooAlan Pull wrote:Einstein has been up and working perfectly since lunchtime. Please remember that you will have to remove any app_info.xml-file you may have in your projects/einstein-directory, then restart Boinc. Lets make this a smashing crunch.

I would guess so Gary, I didnt have the file either and all appears to be running fine, apart from the size/length of WU!! :hmph: and the odd Validation error :dontknow:Rockinfroggi wrote:Couldn't see any app_info.xml-file in the project folder, does that mean I'm good to go? and what do those files relate tooAlan Pull wrote:Einstein has been up and working perfectly since lunchtime.

Looks like we off to a good start - I think we'll gain a place in the Einstein World Ladder tomorrow. Nice to see we have so many team spirited members supporting the crunch.

thanx for the email announcing the einstein crunch, it reminded me of days gone by, its been a long time since I crunched anything, it happens after a format, completely forgot to install boinc again, anyway I got 2 computers crunching einstein now, gonna format a 3rd and install linux and have it crunching aswell.
More Power to the CPU.

According to BOINCStats we had our best ever performance yesterday with over 30,000 credits AND a World place climb to (ahem) 47. If this is repeated today then we should go up another to the heady heights of 46!

Well, the pending credits WILL help the project and the team score, but sadly won't be specifically "counted" within the context of the Crunch stats.Rockinfroggi wrote:Iza crunchin boz Iza crunchin
I take it that pending credits are not going to help the mini crunch? as I seemed to have amassed 1,636 for Einstein
However ALL credits count whether issued straight away or at some point later....so it's all worthwhile stuff....!

Our RAC for the week prior to the Crunch was around 11.2K, it seems to be peaking now at over one and a half times that (17.4K). This will of course decline again, but vividly indicates one of the most successful crunches ever. Deserves a round (of beers or cheers) to all those team spirited members who took part.

That's strange - cos if you got here
http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/top_teams. ... &offset=20
it says we're No 31.
I guess Boincstats.com gives a different ranking to the Einstein website.

That's right - but that's the RAC order rating you're looking at. Click on the 'total credit' near the top right and the table will list it in total credit order.UBT - Janea wrote:That's strange - cos if you got here

OK - the link YOU gave shows us at 31st place in terms of Recent Average Credit (which is to be expected as the Crunch meant we returned more WU's than we would do normally).
Whereas, the info I was basing the "placing" on, relates to the Total Overall Credit ranking....!
So, we're both right !
