We should be placing far better... 5847.99 kkeys/sec is very low. I'm guessing that we are seeing low participation since it's so early in the contest. So everyone go out and grab the client at www.distributed.net/rc5/ and configure it to report as email team-freebsd@circle.net if you want to help out. www.circle.net/team-freebsd/ has more info. Personally, I renice the process to +20 - is there really much difference between +19 and +20? Just curious... :-) At any rate, with the process running at nice +20 I can see no notiecable slow down on my system. Pretty neat. Unix. It works. Go figure. :-) cya, -Mark > > -- > Poul-Henning Kamp FreeBSD coreteam member > phk@FreeBSD.ORG "Real hackers run -current on their laptop." -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Mayo mark@vmunix.com RingZero Comp. http://www.vmunix.com/mark finger mark@vmunix.com for my PGP key and GCS code ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Win95/NT - 32 bit extensions and a graphical shell for a 16 bit patch to an an 8 bit operating system originally coded for a 4 bit microprocessor, written by a 2 bit company that can't stand 1 bit of competition. -UGU
