Nice :) Thanks for the update.

AFAIK only FFT is done by the GPU at the moment - so the GPU is utilized only at about 20% (like Raistmers app in the good old days *g*). I am sure there is much space for optimization ...

P.S.
Shame that other, very-well funded, projects like for example Einstein@Home, don't allow users/developers to write optimized apps. Maybe setiquest.org well be an alternative ... one day.

Did you see my reply on the Einstein message board? The source is available - linked from the front page, even, and there are instructions for compilation. The only request - and it is that, a request - is that you using a version number of 0.99 or lower when reporting results from a self-compiled application.
The main reason Einstein hasn't spawned an optimisation community is that the apps are already optimised in-house, so everybody gets an optimised app, not just the self-selected few. But I'm sure there's still scope for more optimisation - if you think you can do better, I'm sure you will be welcomed with open arms. You might even get a consultancy out of it, as Akos Fekete did.

Better stop drinking - and start reading. Properly. Nobody want's to stop optimized apps ... ::)

Now Now people. Keep it nice please, tensions are high enough with all the bone pointing going on about server load.
msattler:
I will simply spit if anybody suggests again that limiting the big contributors to the project is the answer to it's problems........
You (expletive deleted for clarity) have muddied the issue for faaaaaaaar to long now.
The few hosts who have the capacity to make a few more work requests to Seti are such a small percentage of the total that they are swamped by the rest.......do you actually think that anything I could do on my end including shutting them all down would make the servers stay up??????????
Eric knows this.........that's why the limits are put in place each week.........it limits the total amount of work requested.........not by the big users, but by everybody.
And it is more the 'everybody' that overloads the servers than the big users......we are just more visible for you barbs..........
So stop jousting at us........
