Windows optimized SETI@Home clients - Initial public release

<< < (9/13) > >>

Simon:
SSE3 for AMD CPUs is slower than SSE2 - for this reason, I won't be releasing an SSE3 version.

It's normal that it still says "5.12" as version for WUs you started out with Crunch3r's app - the app_info.xml I included specifically resumes any WU from v 5.12 to v 5.15. You could open your task manager, it will tell you what app is really running (his has a different file name).

HTH,
Simon.

Greetings.

Tried the Pentium M version on the IBM T42 laptop tonight:
-1.7 ghz Pentium M
-1.0 gigabyte ram
-40 gig internal drive
-Windows XP Pro SP2

Looks about 15627 seconds for the first work unit it encountered,
I need to see more to get an idea of how fast it truly is over
24 hours or so.

Here is the workunit: http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/result.php?resultid=364924312
Not validated yet, but I expect soon.

More data as I get it...

Update - it appears, although I cannot be completely sure that the speed
of this optimized client is as fast or slightly faster than Cruncher's Pentium M
client but with the added bonus of slightly better RAC.

So, good show so far!

I can let you know sometime this weekend if you want another opinion...I have the same system setup as you except I have the 1.6 GHz chip.  I believe that it is running crunch3r's app but i haven't looked at the computer in about a month (i sold it to my cousin).
