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  ;)

Hello Simon!

Or it is like this, that I can run the new coming out original S@H V5.17 WUs with your V5.15 or Cruch3rs V5.12?

Greetings!

All work at the main setiathome project can be successfully crunched with 5.12 or better, yes. It's all produced by splitting data from the Arecibo 1420MHz Flat Feed. Sometime in the future, after a new version comes out of Beta, there will be work from the ALFA receiver which may require 5.17 or better.

Hello!

Then itīs like this, that when "original" S@H V5.17 comes out (after testing in BETA), Simon "must" (when he would like, I hope he will do) do a new optimized version.
Thatīs correct?

You said, sometime in the future... (S@H V5.17 is now in S@H Beta), so in around 4 weeks itīs for the main S@H, or?

Greetings!

Possibly 4 weeks, but probably not 5.17. The Windows 5.17 is unusable on Win9X, for the Mac 5.17 I saw results from one system which had been doing 5.15 with no problems but every 5.17 result errored out in 22 seconds. Eric hasn't produced a Linux 5.17 yet, says there's a BOINC side problem...

I'm not sure what the situation is with ALFA data. I presume the guys who installed the recorder brought back at least some data, and someone is probably working on splitter code. I suppose that could all come together in 4 weeks too.

One potential issue which shouldn't be forgotten is that 5.17+ will be using a 3.81 multiplier in reporting fpops_cumulative compared to 3.35 for 5.15. That 13.7% increase will get a lot of attention.

msattler:
When 5.17 is rolled out to mainstream Seti, will they go through a transition period (like the transition to enhanced) where the scheduler will still parse out 5.15 wu's to users who are not upgraded yet, or will they just force the Seti client to update to 5.17?  And if they force the update, will I come home from work some day to find all of my 7 crunchers merrily running pell mell through the wu's generating errors ('cuz they are all on Chicken apps)?  Or will Simon (I guess I don't know if he prefers to be referred to as Simon or the notorious Chicken) have his apps upgraded to 5.17-ready in advance to we can all upgrade before they start coming out?  I know, a lot of questions.
