I use SSE on my movie computer and my sons computer.

On my sons computer (Celeron2400mhz) it gives a very big increase, some up to maybe 75%.

How ever on my movie computer (AMDXP2600+) it only increases marginally like 25%.

On my server (AMD64,3000+) I use SSE2, it gives also just a slight improvement 30% perhaps.

 

How ever it is well worth optimizing ...

Ok.. I'm new to optimizing the Boinc client...  Which one should I use?  I'm running Windows Xp Pro(32 bit) on a AMD Anthlon XP 64 FX 53. Been getting quite a few WU's that are in the 13 hour range that would usually be in the 4 hour area. And then where would I find the optimized client?

Hm I still run 5.15 anyway...

so the question is, do you have a AMD XP or a AMD 64 ?

if it is a AMD XP you should try this one... SSE-optimized 5.15

if it is a AMD 64 you should use this one... SSE2-optimized 5.15 app   (I would try this one first if I where you !)

Re: Seti Optimized apps

I tried both of those also..  came up with the same kind of error..looks like I'll be waiting for the standard app to hit 5.17 then I'll use an optimized app.

Re: Seti Optimized apps

I wonder if it was just the fact that the current wu's were "linked" to the 5.17 app, I had that happen on a box, all the wu's in my cash errored out, then it re-downloaded all new work and it was fine.

Re: Seti Optimized apps

btw, I am using chicken 5.15 on all of my machines now.  my RAC is still climbing..  I think it's been since Monday late afternoon since they've been running with the optimization.  I removed crunch3r and decided to go with chicken.  don't know why, just did... so far, so good...

It ain't easy being greazy..

I'm also changed to chicken 5.15 except the Celeron and AMD XP mashines...

Ok, got all 3 of mine running the ssse-3 client.  I'll be watching the rac to see if it rises any faster.

Inital results show around a 10% improvement.  It'll take a lot more for a better feel, but it's looks very promising .
