Folding Forum

(i never used Linux and not going to at this moment) well, i talked with developed. he told that advanced scheduler in Linux does all the stuff like Affinity Changer itself, optimizing setting of affinities, including how it is dependent of CPU cache etc, so affinity changer for linux is not really ...

I am not really sure why 10 mins was set as default detection time. FahSMpAffinityChanger.exe already ate whole 00:00:00 on my month-uptime machine and eating cpu with speed of 0%

I think that checking period may be set to smaller time period, like 1 min

1) we were thinking about detecting if any other process ATE more than 10% of total CPU time in the detection period ( = 10 min ). If such process found, affinities for the next period will be set all-processes-for-all-cores

2) i did not get what you ask

toTOW : about SMP A-CH on Quad with simgle FAH client. I talked with nik4eva and some other crunchers from my team and we decided that assigning affinities on Quad with ONE FAH SMP client does not give increase of PPD(like it gives on quad with 2 SMP clients). We have not free quad machine for test...

I mean usual non-smp client. For example, on some of my core duo machines i cannot run SMP because they do not run 24/7 and SMP would not fit deadline.

if you were not security noob, you'd already have firewall installed and see that Affinity Changer does not connect to internet.

!!!111 k ?

from the other side, this program goes from the top of crunchers from top50 world team (Ukraine). that is not enough for you too?

no off3ns3.

1.0.4 version will come out soon, which will also assign affinities for FAH console client

Utility for automatical assigning of affinities for SMP folding cores. It works as a service and assigns affinities every 10 mins if needed. Generally this gives up to 10% PPD, which is like up to 1000 additional points for Intel Quad processors. 1.0.3 version is available here: http://distributed.o...
