I'll keep this post updated with links to the latest version, along with changelogs.

Drop in for MuskyBench, or to do live monitoring only.

ftp://FAHBench-1.09.zip

Full Version including MuskyBench - install 1.09 over the top.

ftp://FAHBench-1.05-full.zip

Linux Beta

ftp://fahbench-108.tar.gz

Linux instructions in next post.

Quick guide to using ODBC to access the Database:

ftp://Using_ODBC.pdf

Latest wus.csv to calculate PPD - updated 07/08/11

ftp://wus.csv

NOTE: The Linux 1.08 works - sort of. The hardware detection is still a work in progress.

1.09
Fixed the version string
Connectivity test during the configuration.
1.08a
Replaced bench.cfg with correct version
1.08
Added initial config
Added -config switch
Added FAHCore and Notes fields
Fixed issue that would cause Bench to lose sync if a WU was restarted and a new logfile was started.
1.07 -
Replaced 64 bit MySQL client with 32 bit version.
Uses the newest CPU-Z which doesn't require a driver to be copied.
Added estPoints and estPPD for the WU
Fixed issue that caused -live to lose sync with the FAH Client
Made the inital LoadTest proportional to the number of cores in the PC.
1.06 - Added the monitoring of live FAH units. To use, extract the ZIP into your live FAH directory then run with:
"bench -live"
1.05 - Fixed a compiler issue that caused the benchmark to consume upto a core constantly.
Fixed an issue with queue.dat becoming corrupted and real WU's being downloaded.
Insufficient core loading on a CPU with P-state management could prevent it hitting P0, leading to inaccurate CPU Freq measurement.
Added additional Dimm counting routine incase CPU-Z fails.
Changed the core app back to FAHBenchmarkApp.exe

1.04 Changed over from getting data from a multitude of sources to a single source CPU-Z

1.03 Rewrote cache detection routines to work with Sandy Bridge
Added Memory DIMM counts

1.00 - 1.02 Proof of concept builds

To install the linux client:

extract the archive into a folder. Then do:

sudo apt-get install wine
sudo apt-get install mysql-client
sudo apt-get install x86info
sudo -H winecfg
- Add application -> browse to /home/yourid/benchfolder/cpuz.exe
- Set Windows version to Window 98

On the first run you'll be prompted for user info, Database info etc

-Your username (eg Haitch)
-The path to your folding directory. eg /home/haitch/fah


To run
./runbench.sh
You'll be prompted for the sudo password.

Fixed. The file was changed to "Full" instead of "full"
