Hello!

Of course, you noticed too, that at S@H Beta is now the V5.17 (Windows)...

When do you can do an optimized version?

Greetings!

 :)


PS. I need MMX and SSE2  ;)

This is just my opinion, but I don't think users should be using any optimized applications in Beta unless Eric approves it.  Beta is to test the original application (Erics).  It would be like running water in your house while a plumber is checking the system.  It may be OK but it adds layers of complexity Eric might not want while he's trying to fix the app.

There have always been optimized versions in the Beta testing of setiathome_enhanced. Tetsuji made and distributed some in the early days, and continues to make his own personal builds. Crunch3r's limited group of testers also participated on Beta Test until enhanced went to main. Eric has never complained.

So long as it is a small percentage of those participating and the optimized apps identify clearly in stderr.txt it does no harm. Having more people working with the source and possibly finding bugs by compiling with different tools and/or flags could do a lot of good.

Would like to try a 5.17 with my new X2 4800+ @ 2,5 GHz.
