Twistid 2006-09-09 04:02:26 | Hi, I'm pretty new to muon1 (been running it for an hour each day: I use multiple distributed computing programs to help as much as I can each day ). Anyways, most of them have about the same settings but muon1 is unique and I was wondering if someone could provide a description of each available setting, recommend a setting, or also any way I could optimize things for best performance (if there are any) and also to simply refer me to a site that provides some or all of what I'm looking for, I've already looked through Overkill's explanations but it wasn't specific enough for me. I figure that knowing what system i'm running for this so here's what I can think of to say at the moment: 2 usable Hard Drives (Windows Installation on C: C is 250GB and D is 160G Windows XP Pro Using ZoneAlarm and Avast! Antivirus 24/7 1023 MB of memory Intel Pentium 4 Processor (Multithread: 2 that can use SSE, SSE2, MMX) (3192 MHz) Cable Internet Connection |

As long as it says "detected 2 logical processors" at the beginning of the commandline client that means it's found your P4's HT function and will generate two threads. There are various settings for upload/download handing. I've set them to my preferred defaults in the package you download, but you can change them for other situations e.g. a dialup computer you might want to stop it contacting the server for samplefiles and sending stuff. |
