Anyone run 64-bit SETI on a 64-bit OS? I gave it a shot and was quite disappointed.
I’m running an Athlon 64 3200+ under SUSE Linux 64-bit.
I’ve loaded the x86_64 version of SETI and have it running from the command line.
It’s completed 18% in the last hour! At that rate it will take over 5 hours to complete one unit! Just to give you an idea, an Athlon XP 2400+ running 32-bit Linux completes a unit in about 3 hours. This same Athlon 64 computer running standard 32-bit Windows completes a unit in about two hours.
What’s up with the Athlon 64, running 64-bit code?
