Climate model on a mac project: #12 In Production!


At last, the new machine is now doing production work and I've run almost 24 hours so far.  First, it's running a bit slower than anticipated, about 13.5 model years per day. I'm not sure what's causing the slower speeds, but it's still an acceptable speed considering my original estimate was only 7 model years per day.

Temperature remains a worry for me. The CPU temps seemed reasonable, but the RAM temps seemed rather high for long-term processing.  So, I ordered some fans to cool the RAM boards.

Tomorrow, I'll take a look at the output and start planning a possible Cocoa front-end for running the model.
