| 1) Message boards : Projects : Bitcoin Utopia not science project
Message 56042 Posted 15 Sep 2014 by pazsion |
most of what is said here is complete gibberish. the boinc credits are just a way to keep track of things. it would not matter much if one project had more points then another, except that it would show people using and contributeing to the project. regardless of who's team you joined you can mine and compute right alongside those projects and teams. it would not take away from anything. asic vs cpu or gpu also a bunch of people talking without much of anything being said. ALL data inside a computer is an integer...a number. no asics do any kind of floating point processing. unless they were made to. which many are not, and are way to far from being produced. In a manner people could easily use. beside a gfx card or general cpu, which does have a floating point processor. All of them are the same, asics and gpus just throw data around in multiples slower then cpus currently do. if you notice, gpus and asic get tons more rejections and hw errors then cpu's do. But the randomly generate numbers are accepted in a more timely way. since most pools cater to what makes them money. hence the reasonings they put forward for excludeing cpu's. which is nonesense. I for one wish my boinc credits and project credits earned me money. Then i could buy better hardware to both make MORE money and contribute more. all of this discrediting nonesense is just hurting yourselfs. please let me know when gridcoin-qt is available again. Or of any projects that pay out cryptocoin of any sort. based on boic credits... another thing is each project has their own point system outside of each other...so again it takes nothing from anyone or anything. ALL hardware is needed. most projects are cpu only. Its really sad when good things are pushed into the shadows, simply because people don't bother to understand before they degrade something they don't know. |
| 2) Message boards : Questions and problems : hd usage
Message 23413 Posted 2 Mar 2009 by pazsion |
i have 4 gb per hd allocated for the page files.. and 50% HD usage overall.. I think it would be nice to have a choice of which HD is sued for the 50% Having a dedicated free space hd significantly increases performance for video and data bandwidth. Mostly because the disk isnt also being accessed by several programs like windows itself or linux even.. |
