F@H SMP Affinity Changer
- It Works! (For Most) -
I posted this in our TPU F@H thread, Page 70 about half way down ( http://forums.techpowerup.com/showpost.php?p=890295&postcount=1741 ). But I figured I'd start a new thread for it, and put it in my sig.
This little program does wonders for quad cores, allowing you to run 2 SMP clients for a total of 8 threads on a single quad core processor. This can add some serious PPD for output, a couple of drawbacks would be heavier load, and thus slightly higher temps and longer completion of WU's. How it works:
After some time interval (10 mins) utility checks, if there are 4 processes of FahCore_a1 (one FAH SMP client). If so, and system has 2 CPUs or 2 cores, then utility assigns two processes for each core in some magic way: first core gets process with maximal memory usage, and process with minimal memory usage. Other two processes are assigned to second core.
For quad core processors, first SMP client is assigned to 1st and 3rd core, 2nd SMP client assigned to 2nd and 4th core. Assigning affinities on QUAD if you run one SMP client does not make sense.
Attention: Version 1.0.5 support 8-core computers (2 quad-core processors only).
Security notice: Affinity Changer does not connect to internet. period.

Feel free to post your results, gripes, praises, complaints, disbeliefs, support here, I am only posting this because my results turned out better than I truly expected out of it...I figured it would maybe do nothing, add 100PPD to each IF THAT...well I was suprised, so I must share! And if you do find this useful, please leave a thanks!
I know back when I first posted this, using this on AMD processors wasn't doing so well. I'm not sure atm, and would like some feedback on that end of things.
