F@H I have three clients on a dual processor...!

F@H I have three clients on a dual processor...!

I haven't restarted since I might lose wifey's slot machine score!

One is the original single processor download running at 50% the other two split the other 50% up and down since I put in the SMP client.

Interesting...

Am I heading for trouble? Seems too good to be true!

Hell, I may never restart!

Chuckie, I'd say your heading for trouble. It probably won't let you do that again after you restart. Also, if it does crunch all the way through, I have a feeling it's gonna give you an error when it goes to send the data.
Not only that, but you probably have a machine ID issue now with 3x clients going. So more then likely, none of them are gonna report..
Just what I think is gonna happen...
Good luck though!

I've got core one as Machine 1 and core 2 as machine 2.

I think I'll wait until the "stock" one finishes and uninstall it.

Will the ones running as a service pause when I'm gaming?

No, but it still will only use your idle CPU cycles, so no worries there.
So your running 1 SMP, 1 console and 1 GUI?

I dumped the GUI this am - it was fetching a new work unit.

Just for giggles, when I finally do restart I may re load the GUI and re config my SMP's to machine 2 & 3, assuming the GUI defaults to machine 1.

I'm not sure what you mean by console...

I can't imagine wrecking anything fatally...
