anyone else keep getting tinkers?

My P4 2.8 has gotten I think 13 Tinkers in a row. Talk about wasting the potential of the box. Almost every one of them has been either 239, 241 or 249 point Tinkers, also. My main box is also currently chewing on a Tinker and it is the second in a row.

My two other boxen are currently crunching 600 point Gromacs at the moment.

 
Yah I have an Xp 2200 that is chewin on a 78 point tinker
and its like pullin teeth atm. Dunno whats goin on, but
its slower than a hardon piss.

 
I have three AMD boxes and only one Intel box. Guess which one keeps getting the tinkers. :rolleyes:

Oh well, life goes on. Hopefully. ;)

 
Out of the 8 instances I am running, I got 4 tinkers and 4 gromatics. All Intel processors though. :cool:
 
I've got an XP2000+ with 1.5GB of ram that once or twice a week will get a 100+ pointer, the rest of the time it gets 33 and 36 pointers. I haven't seen it get a tinker in probably 6 months. And yes its set for big packets and everything, I've checked like 90 times.


 
My AMD box just started choking on a tinker. 240 points though, so I shouldn't complain, but it'll take almost as long as a 600 pointer >.<
 
I got a handfull of the tinkers over the last few days on the P4's but it appears that with the beginning of the weekend, I've been back to gromacs and ambers. The AMD boxen has been avoiding the tinkers like the plague and getting alot of 364 point gromacs.

 
Love those tinkers -
140 hours on a P3 933, steady diet, about 40ppd, Luckily one p4 keeps hooking up with QMD's (340ppd).

 
36 hours for the tinker my AMD's crunching, @2.2 GHz. 240 points. It took me the same amount of time to crunch a 600 point Gromac. >.< Way to kill my processing time, Stanford.

You'd think that they could do the same thing with Tinkers that they do with QMD cores: Only give them to Pentium's.

 
Ahh the AMD fans always complaining about something.... :D
