Wow! Nice Come-back! :D

PPWU looks like the regular core A2 SMP WU's with no GPU WU's.

Maybe somebody should tell him about exporting the environment variable MPICH_NO_LOCAL=1 to increase production. :o

Burning in some new servers at work:

8 -x HP BL490G6 Blades with 2x E5540 2.53GHz and 72GB of ram, and the last WUs got stuck Sunday so it could have been a better weekend.

We're runnin' notfred, and messed up and were only using 4 cores instead of 8. Fixed, this should be another big week. Once they turn in to SQL servers the ride's over, but we figured the team could use a shot in the arm for a couple of weeks.

Here is where you want to start reading to find out how to produce a lot more points on those machines, though if you're not running off of hard drives you'll have to find someone else's ISO other than notfred's.

You might even be able to run 2 per machine with E5540's.

Hey, so you mean you may not overtake me, and I may get to keep my placing at #8? I was getting worried....

Throw the -BIGADV flag on there and add in a passkey. This thread indicates that a pair of those processors could do 39k PPD: http://foldingforum.org/viewtopic.php?f=55&t=11314

8 of them should be good for 300k PPD. Wow... competition! :-)
