RE: Which PASE AIX Version

Maybe, can't remember what Intel chip I had in my Windows box years ago when I ran the original SETI client.

Doug, even if you do find a version of bionic to run, I think that at with your system running 370 CPW you will be unhappy with the results. It will be a fun exercise, let us know how you make out.

I recall running the older version of SETI on a similar sized system and was disappointed. :-(

I think the new P6/P7 systems will do well because on their multithreaded capability.

I have a 270 22A5 which has a RISC-Pulsar processor running v5r1. I'm looking at running SETI BONIC in the PASE environment. I'm wondering which is the best AIX version to install. My 1st thought was the "BONIC Client 6.10.58" as shown below. But, why I'm questioning all of this is the last line at the bottom "12% faster than the PPC/Power application on Power3/4/5 CPUs." I don't know what Power chip my 270 has.
