New to UK BOINC
Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2007 9:14 pm
Good day all,
I'm Ian Matthews task crunching for SETI@home. I have only recently joined the SETI project (5 Apr) and have been quietly doing my own thing until yesterday when I joined UK BOINC. I'm a pom living in New Zealand so I think my joining the UK group shouldn't cause too many raised eyebrows!
I tend to leave my machine on all of the time, so the tasks crunch non-stop. I'm not sure how performance is measured, but I have been surprised that it's taken 2 weeks to break the 10k barrier - I thought it would be quicker looking at the other users into the 100s of millions! Perhaps my throughput is slow or I just need to stick at this for a lot more years.
Hope to be able to partcipate in other aspects of team activities.
Cheers,
Ian
