A new MacOS X Intel App is available from our Beta Test Page.

It uses latest 'science code' which in particular fixes a 'sorting' problem that lead to validation errors with the 4.10 App. Looks a little slower, though, but the fix is worth it. It should pick up tasks of 4.10 from the checkpoint and lead to correctly validating results, even if the task has been began withe the 4.10 App.

MacOS X Intel S5R3 App 4.22 available for Beta Test

I would like to know ; is there any new Beta for MAC OS X PowerPC planned ?


I should definitely build a new PPC App from current code. Some recent changes in BOINC prevented me from doing so, and also the fact that the Apps I made from current code ran slightly slower than the first S5R3 Apps.

I hope that I can get a new PPC App out of the door this week, but I wouldn't expect it to be noticeably faster than the current one. I intend to publish a "power App" for a limited range of machines (something like G5 w. MacOS >= 10.4) once I got the AltiVec code working for the current code (which it isn't yet).
