I have six 2.5Ghz Celeron machines that i can run the uniprocessor client on. How many PPD should i expect for each of them ... do you guys think it would even be worth it?

It would depend on how much electric costs in your area and how much electric they consume. PPD is variable as some A4 uni WU's have the QRB implemented but gromacs WU do not. I would guess at most ~1-1.5k PPD but i could be wrong.

Also depends on whether you va;lue the science more - some still run a uni client or 2 as there is masses of work that needs to be done

if you can afford the E bill do it... uni clients are not known for good ppd... most of us that have monsters generally borg a few machines with a uni client to help with that section of the project...
 
i didnt even know about this..

how well would the UNI work across...


11x i3 3.1Ghz (dual cores with HT)

Can only see a linux install, is there a windows?

just fine... you could run 2 clients on each... or 1 smp on each...
 
does it work in that all of the systems combined act as 1 unit / 'cpu' to process a single WU or am i miss-understanding this?

i do run the SMP on my i7 work rig already..

uni clients only work on 1 core... no its not a cluster client...
 
k, that is what i was thinking, why i was surprised i hadnt heard of this, the way the OP wrote their post i was thinking they had made a clustered client!
